That was also a common sign at Lockheed Missiles and Space in Sunnyvale CA in the 1960's. In those days we had a great many German engineers who came to the USA after WWII and who by then had been here long enough to start getting security clearances. I still recall the German engineer boss I had who bought Siemens test equipment for me to use and handed me the manuals to study, all in German. That's when I learned that a Rauschpeggelmesser was really a "noise level meter" among many other things German, Hi!
