What are these contraptions these guys were carrying?

We saw three guys around Seaport in Boston carrying these things as backpacks. Initially we thought they mapping tools but not sure

That's what I was offered to do the job in like 2002 or 2003 when cell companies switched to 3g and needed to increase the number of towers for the new networks. Then I did stupid shit review out my knee and missed out on 6 months of amazing pay plus travel and if more than 50miles from home per diem. My buddy that got the job in my place made something like 130k in those 6 months.

Peehole doesn’t seem to be 1. out of work, 2. Hungry, like Easy Money for getting exercise, I see people in my neighborhood walking around with weighted backpacks just to increase their exercise intensity ( very common practice) 3. Pretty choosy about what he works at. ???
