I don't have one to study so can't help more than that... photos will be welcomed if you do find one to work from.
Looking at the diagrams, the radio, power supply and antenna tuner all look to be a later generation than WS19. I don't know whether the carriers remained the same or changed with the generations of radio.

Those are the post-WW2 mountings for Carrier No.25 with Barry mounts instead of the 'bridge type' shock absorbers. (The set shown is a C12 and the front clamps are wound in and out by a slotted screw below the hook.)
The wartime ones were mostly made from sheet metal. (I have a spare one somewhere (hoping to find a partner for it eventually), and will see if I can find it for measurements, etc.)
