A further thought: it's possible that you could use modern flat 'earth braid' and slide suitable 3-core cable inside it. The result is likely to look a bit 'too new', though.

On a different note, I suspect the calibrators were only issued to Net control stations (i.e. with actual signals personnel) during WW2, and the lower level users simply netted to 'Control'. Using the calibrator is not that simple, and it's just one more thing to go wrong, so may have been 'dedicated wireless trucks only' issue.

Best regards,
Chris.
