Wireless of the Week - week 23

[Bruce Parker (RIP)]

The weight given would be for the entire station including aerial gear and batteries, not just the set in its carrier. I can post weights of the set components from the manual if you'd like though I rather think you may prefer I don't if weight lifting cement bags works for you!!

I'm surprised at the weight given. I've had to move mine of course (Aust) and just can't remember that it weighed that much? That's nearly 2 cwt which is like picking up two of the old fashioned bags of cement in one lift. I must be stronger than I think!! Ron
