You've got us 15th Recce chaps with 2 Dingos, a 
Humber Mk IV armored car being restored and 2 
Humber LRC projects in the works. Bill Max has 
worked with us in the past at events. At some 
point I hope to have our WS19s working, but 
getting the B sets and intercoms working will be 
a challenge. If we were to have someone want to 
turn out with us at either set piece events like 
Reading or tactical events like FIG2, we'd highly 
welcome someone with an 8 or 15cwt wireless van 
wanting to do a mobile signals impression. I know 
it ain't cheap though and it is a lot to ask.
