Default Brilliant, David!

The whole field of generators and radios has been a complete mystery to me so I stayed well away! I have used AN/PRC 77 sets, but that is the limit for me.

Then I chanced on a Radio Shack body for a NZ C8AX and the bug bit...
so far I have most of the NZ built ZC1 MkII radio set and accessories to kit it out. This radio was locally designed and built and was tested in Canada and found to be better than the No19 to operate.

I have followed this thread as the Radio Shack has a locker for the generator, and obviously it needs to be filled! Last weekend I drove 5 hours each way to measure up the interior furniture of an original refurbished Radio Shack, so progress is being made.

Once again thank you for your most helpful description. I will inspect the Iron Horse set this afternoon.

Rob
