Derek, Only the control box up front would have this cover. The other one in the rear compartment above the WS19 set is covered by the big cover.

Once I get my front ammo bins from Midwest Military I will take some pictures of the way this should all be setup.

Nigel, pls put me down for one of the aerial mast bases.

Default Mast base

Thanks for the update Nigel - I was wondering what had happened about the bases as i have found an original brass toothed base plate. I am still accumulating parts for the scout as I go, whether or not I restore the machine myself.

Cheers

Phill

Default Clarification.....

Hi Jordan

So what are we working on.....

The back panel that has the edges turned over...... the narrow metal strips that are rivited over the canvas...... and you have the switch box to bolt to the backing plate...... or do we also need the backing plate for the switch box.....?

May be cheaper to send by Grey Hound...... I work downtown and can easily pick it up.

Firstly, Thank you for your hospitality, and i appreciate your going to the trouble of picking me up, and taking me back. I enjoyed my visit.
I have re read this thread, (that now seems to have become the MLU radio thread) and I note that you were enquiring about the small parts of the aeriel mount. as you would now know, I do have those bits. So how can I help? I cannot yet locate the rubber bumper, but it is not a good example.
