[Milsurplus] Re: Aussie Radio information

[Ray Robinson]

Hi there,

An Australian made radio (1952)
worn on the chest as 2 pouches.
Nomeclature is British 
post Wireless Set system numbering
like the A40,
where: 
A means under 1 watt, 
1 means HF,
0 means the first design
If it was designed in Britian,
that would be its number 
but a country designation was added
5 means Australian designed.
