During the Korean War Canada, like other Commonwealth participants, continued to use wireless sets. These included the WS19, WS52, WS62 & WS88. There was some use of the US SCR300 but mostly for infantry.

From "History of the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals":

"C Squadron, Lord Strathcona's Horse, had found it expedient to exchange the F.M. radio equipment in their American tanks for No. 19 sets."

I'm making the assumption that the other armoured units also used the WS19.
