Obviously the British sets are much more rare. How rare are the Ozz sets becoming?

Hi Ron

Id say there are still quite a few Aust. 11 sets hiding in sheds barns and old garages .

The immediate post war radio magazines here, have adverts from surplus stores , selling lots of radio stuff , including 11 sets . The army here got rid of the 11 sets very fast at wars end , the sets performed poorly . A small number of the UK built sets have turned up here , I have one and Ive seen another one at a hamfest , these may have been sent out as examples for AWA to copy ?
