Terry:

At least the C42 had a squelch, even though it was "old squelch" (noise operated). At the time it was a vast improvement over the WS No 19, which created no end of operator fatigue.

Ref the 3 sided shelf...if you were using a vehicular set up, that shelf should have been removed. The shelf was used only for classroom or National Survival set ups, with the ATU and Simulator ATU mounted on the shelf.

Well, the shelf was part of the installation (at least for Sher H Jeeps c.1976). If we were doing it wrong, go back in time and tell off the Sergeant Major. As I recall, it was a handy place to put the misc. component boxes and cabling, without drilling any more holes in the body. Yes, it was tall but there were extra places to put your note book, RP4 ration boxes and mittens. The wooden crates for National Survival deployments were stacked up at the end of the drill hall. I don't remember ever using them. Someone more 'referenced' than me can explain the various little bits on that particular checklist.
