Hello Mr. Duncan,

Have you searched the web via Google, etc.?  There's a lot of 
information out there. For example:

http://www.oldradio.com/archives/hardware/WE/1-A.htm
http://louise.hallikainen.org/BH/index.php/WesternElectric
This page has a good scan of the WE 1923 Broadcast Equipment Technical 
Bulletin.

Regards,
Al
