There's always stuff on ebay if you type WW2 19set wireless.

Thanks Chris, now its clear! I have 1583 (and thanks for that!) - there is a nice sketch of No.25, unfortunately no adapter plate nor parts under the carrier itself.
Im sorry about my endless questions but as it seems that I will have to make it I want to make it right. And every picture or info counts. So thanks again.

Lots of WS19 stuff on ebay, you are right Ron, but mostly "regular" parts.

OK, so here it is. I made it from 2mm sheet which is a bit thicker than original I guess, but still happy with it.

Petr.

Your choice of 2 mm sheet was a good one. The originals are just a little too thin and the burled nut is easily overtightened causing the plate to flatten directly underneath it and the sheet metal torn open right back through the hole, rendering the plate useless.

Nice work as usual, by the way!

Beautifull work Petr.
Could you post some pictures and description of how you made the parts, (and also of your other great work).
I'm sure many of us would like to try some of your methods.
Regards
George

Thank you all!
I have no pics from the process, but it was pretty straightforward. I made simple forming fixture from the thicker sheet and otherwise I used couple of hammers and vice. And of course lathe and drill.
And thats it.
