Ooh! Aeronautical & General Instrument Company Ltd.

It's British (and the company is still operating, mostly as a Defence contractor, I think). They also made photographic equipment: Agiflex and Agifold cameras, Agiphot enlarger, etc.

Unless you use an extension cable on the droplead, I think you are going to have severe difficulty in mounting the control unit and Junction Remote Control close enough together - although the control unit was mounted flat on top of the set in the Daimler Dingo, so if there is room you might get both of them on there. The other problem is: where does the remote cable reel mount? If it's on the turret then you need a feed through the rotary base junction (if fitted), or to connect the JRC to a droplead when required for use - it also needs a 12V supply for the relay to work, and I think the green light may have to be visible to the wireless operator when in use.

Best regards,
Chris.
