Ah, right. A little light begins to dawn. There is no socket assembly as such for the meter, there are two receptacles fitted to the vulcanite panel that accept the meter pins. If you look at Plate X in the handbook, you can see how the meter fits at bottom left.

Unfortunately a previous owner has gutted your aerial coupling unit and turned it into "just a variometer", because the shunt and most of the other parts are missing from that area.

I can find you a 1941 Ferranti HF ammeter, but I think you're going to have to make the socket parts.

Chris.

OK Chris. Can you PM me with details of how I can obtain the ammeter. I'll take advice about the installation at a later date. Cheers Ron

Here's a golf bag aerial kit on UK ebay if anybody is looking for one.

I spotted a Ebonite B base from the golf bag set at the recent hamfest . It was $10 and I didn't buy it as I already have two of them . The seller of that B base is a regular attendee at hamfests and I could possibly buy it for somebody .

For the WS11 fans... two previously unpublished pictures from an album I have of Canadian Wireless operators training with the WS11 at Aldershot.

Hope these are of interest.

Um, I've sent stuff to Canada and got a reply (recipient was a very happy bunny), and I've received (and replied to) your emails. Is your ISP on the blink?
