[Milsurplus] FS/T Interphone? Boxes No. 19 Set

[WA5CAB@cs.com]

Group,

Saturday I attended Brent Mullins' MV open house.  Sold some radios. Bought 
some radios.  Watched a mock battle that included (besides the soldiers) two 
tanks, an M8 Greyhound, a 105 Howitzer, etc.  Lots of smoke.  

I also took in as a swap on some cables a couple of what I think may be 
interphone boxes for use with the No. 19 Set.  Somewhere over the years they 
had gold decals with red/black borders stuck over the painted black on white 
legend areas.  Sometime later, someone else started scratching them off.  I 
scratched off a bit more on one of them (accidentally left the other one over 
at the storage building when I got home from Brent's place Saturday night).  
The upper area says WIRELESS SETS No 19, something scratched off ending in 
CTn followed by DISTn No 3 and below that Z.A. 10244 P.C. No 75523.  Lower 
area says CALL COMMANDER in two lines.  There is a steel mounting plate to 
which the open bottom box is attached.  Finish is flat grey.  I don't see any 
obvious unauthorized holes.

There are parts missing inside, although not all of them.  There are clipped 
wires dangling and two empty holes in the top.  Mic hanger and two rubber 
cable boots are present, plus four hole plugs that look original.

I'm almost totally illiterate when it comes to 19 Sets.  What is it and does 
anyone need it?
