Default Ebonite B

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 two previously unpublished pictures from an album I have of Canadian Wireless operators training with the WS11 at Aldershot.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

Check your spam filter? (Or complain to your ISP, as it looks like they're being silently dropped - I've had no bounce or rejection messages.

Well I'm back onto my switch panel after receiving my switch finger plates back from my local friendly engineer who milled them to size for me.
I borrowed Dave's idea of printing a paper version in negative.....which took some mucking around with my scanner to get to actual size. Then jig sawed the openings for the switches and a down light cutter for the gauges. I'm waiting for some brass BA screws and nuts to arrive before I can continue. But very pleased so far. I'm using a piece of black Bakelite for the panel. Ron

Next faze was to put the cut outs in the bottom of the cabinet where the cables pass through, rivet the hinges on in readiness for the doors (yet to make) and weld on the brackets that hold the panel (which I've now fitted up some more with my new BA screws). I also drilled and tapped the panel brackets for 2BA screws as not knowing what they where originally, I just did it with a size that I have in stock. I'm in need of some period looking cable if anyone has some they'd like to sell. Ron
