Sorry to resurrect this post folks, I have acquired a WS19 set for my Mk2 carrier now

Ron, what carrier did you use to mount the set to ?

I have had my WS set through an old hand (chap served his time on these sets) he has de commissioned the A and B sets for me by removing the associated valves, however, the intercom still works so it is my intention to use it !

I am gathering bits at the moment to complete what I need for a Mk2 install.

Richard my WS19 carrier is the one known as a No22 which allows for the PSU to be mounted on top of the wireless. The No21 carrier is for wireless and PSU in line.

I imagine that a metal shelve would have been fixed from the track guard and over the crew seat for the Welsh Guard configuration. But I've simply installed a non fixed wooden shelve so as not to hamper battery access more than it already is..... For that reason I invested in a sealed for life battery (mine is 12volts).

However I've still fitted the correct rubber/metal feet to the WS carrier. Ron

Cheers.

I still have the hinge plates in place on my track guard so will make a pucker tray. I have the side by side carrier but will end up making a 22 like yours Ron I have the long 12 pin cable that joins the two junction boxes up, just need the short one that goes from the base unit to the no.2 control box.

I like the canvas covers you have on your cables mind Ron, look really good

Gents may I ask you for any details (pics/height) of that (rubber I guess) mounting under the aerial base as on the pictures (thank you Ron). Part is on the position 26. Many thanks!

Helo Petr, I have spare one I think. Do you have any Carrier parts you could swap?

Regards,

Tom
