Hi Adrian, There is a box for one and a aerial mount and in the box there is a shelve with clamps which tighten up with wing nuts

Might be a postwar addition, though if being used as an artillery (4.2" mortar or anti-tank gun) tractor a wireless set would have been useful. If fitted it's likely to have been a WS38 or WS18 I would think.
