I used similar information to Horsa for my MK2 WS19 instalation. Although I mounted my variometer differently. Ron

Cable Condoms They keep the wireless transmissions from leaking out

I've never come across the military pattern but better welding supply shops and places that sell oxygen have very similar looking protective hose covers.

Hi Jordan. The outer sleeving is canvas. I presume as an aid to water proofing for open vehicles. I bought the leads from a fellow carrier owner years ago when I was completing my 19 set station. They are the exact length for my MK2. I recently just missed one of the little canvas covers for the switch control units. Here is a close up of the radio operators control unit. Try a google search on 'SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY' (Ian Durrant) Some of you will know him. He quite often has 19 set spares. Ron
