Radio Covers ZA Numbers anyone??
 

I picked up a couple of differant radio canvas covers, but I don't know what they fit...one is ZA 2952 and the other is ZA 10317

Anyone know what radios they fit?

Thanks
Dean

ZA2952 - cover, waterproof #1, std kit for WS19

ZA10317 - cover, waterproof #5, truck & gnd stn, WS19

Thanks Bruce!!

Dean

Dean...Bruce beat me to it.

Further, ZA 2952 goes over the Power Supply and Transceiver only, usually mounted on the Carrier No 21 in AFVs, whereas ZA 10317 goes over the Power Supply, Transceiver and side mounted Variometer, all mounted on the Carrier No 23.

Where are you getting all this neat stuff?

Where's he getting it????
 

Well...There's this mine.....on the ground.....sort of.....

I couldn't resist.

wireless set 62

Hello all,

May I put in a riddle also:

Covers waterproof No 7, ZA18471 and
Covers, waterproof No 29, ZA41530.

Anyone who knows were they belong to?

Covers waterproof No 7, ZA18471 - for WS19 in 1/4T Land Rover FFW

Covers, waterproof No 29, ZA41530 - ?? a new one for me.

Bruce

Bruce,

Thanks for identifying the ZA18471.

I attached a photo from cover ZA41530 , maybe that clearifies the matter.
On the top of the cover are two "chimneys", most likely meant for putting through two antenna's.
The cover is larger in all directions compared to ZA18471, so I don't think it is from a 19-set.

Thanks Bruce,i wasnt sure,i have a 62 set,so thats what they belong to.

Cover No.29
 

I have a No.29 cover and have been trying to figure out what wireless set it was used on for years...without success (it's not for a Canadian 29 set). My cover has a Canadian RCEME paper tag wired to it that has 'Ferret' written on it in pencil. Could it be for a 42 set? Naww, those were sealed and didn't need a canvas waterproof cover.

19 Set radio cover - ZA - 10317
 

To build on this thread -

I have a cover - PC - 64418 - c, ZA-10317

I am entertaining the idea of sending it to Irfan to have some copies made up.

But it seems like there is a whole sub-culture of WS-19 canvas covers out there.

I am looking for a cover for the side-by -side version as used in AFVs or Mk1 carriers.

If I can track down a copy, or good drawings, I am willing to send mine over as a sample for types of fabric, zips, snaps, gussets, etc.

If one can be made up for a reasonable cost, what kind of interest would there be in getting a fresh reproduction?

Ws 19 cover
 

Guys,

Looking for confirmation. I made a plywood mock up of the rear shelves of my Lynx to store a 19 set and some of the associated gear that I got last year. It will probably be several years before it actually goes into the Lynx, but all this talk about canvas covers has me wondering about the one that came with the kit. The number stenciled on the cover is "P.C. 90816C". Can anyone tell me if this is the appropriate cover for my installation?

Thanks, Peter

Attachment 91993

Yes that is the correct cover for the Lynx.

Thanks
 

Jordan,

Thanks for the prompt reply. One more item to stroke off the master list.

Talking with another MLUer about 19 set covers, he asked whether I knew what 19 set cover was used in a Mk.II carrier. I can't recall ever seeing one in use or even in a sketch. For a lark, I took my Cover No.29 out to my Mk.I carrier to see if it would fit a 19 set located in the front of the rear right compartment, tight up against the division plate. The cover is exactly the right depth and height, but about an inch too wide...however the top of the cover is fiber board so could be meant to rest on either side (the engine cover on the left and the rolled lip on the right) making a shelter for the set. In a Mk.II 19 set installation the set has the supply unit stacked on the sender/receiver and the variometer is above that so any cover would not rest on the set itself.

The Cover No.29 has two vinyl tubes on the top that would be for the A and B aerial leads and there are three openings at the back that match the ones needed for the control unit 12 point cables.

Is the Cover No.29 possibly for a Mk.II Bren Carrier?

Could any one please let me know what cover ZA19218 PC99674 went over and
for which vehicle. It is very similar to ZA1076 PC 90674C but only has two sleeves for the aerial rods and no straps at the back to attache it.
Thanks Stephen
