I am thinking the Wireless Set No. 19 installation in the wartime MB/GPW’s, utilizing the Plate, Mounting No.1, may have been a British idea, subsequently adopted by the Canadian Army.
There is a late 1940’s installation manual from the British Military for the 22-Set in the MB/GPW, and Canada published installation info in the early 1950’s for the 19-Set in the M38CDN, utilizing a completely different system than the Plate, Mounting No. 1.
A handful of these Plates have turned up in Canada. Is it possible, Canadian Army MB/GPW’s based in Canada during the war, and postwar up until replacement by the M38CDN, were equipped with 19-Set Installations using these plates? If so, should there be a Canadian Army publication covering the MB/GPW installation, or would Canada simply have used the available British publication?
Anyone ever run across either?
