Default failure

I did have the receiver from one of these . It appeared to be somewhat flimsy in construction and I was not impressed with it . Were these sets considered to be a success ? IMHO The Allies didn't come up with a successful man pack set until the U.S. SCR 300 appeared. The WS18 looks like so many other wartime British radios , everything was crammed on a single chassis , a maintenance nightmare .
