Hi Vic

Yes , a few of those No. 10 sets did make it out to the antipodeas . A club member here, was a young technician in the PMG ( post office ) in the mid 1950's . At that time , they were experimenting with microwave links and they used a few of the No. 10 sets to test the feasabilty of a permanent setup . I have never seen one of those trailers , but it makes sense that they were here . The sets were integral with the trailers I would think. Why send the sets without the trailers ? The actual number of sets imported would be very small, probably explains why none are left here, that I know of .
