The openings on the cage are large enough for the average hand to fit through.

The cage looks to be no worse than the standard WS19 "brush guard", but looking at the kit list in the EMER (FZ256/3) is causing me some confusion: there are far too many 6-pt connectors, given that there's only a single 6-pt plug (on the supply unit for DC input). It may be that they were options for 24V installations and the driver intercom, though.

The radio goes on the bottom of the cage, fitted to Carrier No.2, the supply unit is mounted somewhere else (!) I believe, and there will be holes in the "box" for the A and B set aerial feeders.

Jesse,

Does the A/B set box sit centered on the #22 carrier, with about 2" of channel on either end of the angle? I am just trying to clarify if the set is centered or offset to the left on the carrier.

Does anyone have a good photo of the #22 carrier?

Perry.

The Carriers No. 22 are actually an asymmetrical piece, which from the factory had the front face of them clearly identified, as per the attached photo of an NOS Basic Carriers No. 22 in my possession.

On the left side, the two main rails extend exactly 2.5 inches beyond the angle. On the right only 2.0 inches. My guess is that this was a critical clearance for many installations using this item.

Two versions of the Carriers No. 22 exist. The Basic like this one, and a second version (under a different 'PC Number') that could be ordered complete with the appropriate canvas hold down straps, cushions and Mounting Bridges. Cannot recall that PC Number at the moment.

Hope this helps.

It will be only one version, but every single component will have its own part number so that spares can be ordered as necessary, I think. (It's also possible that a "partial carrier" is included in some installation kits, e.g. for Universal Carrier, where you get a replacement Carrier No.2 and clamping strap No.3, but have to salvage the cushions, steel angle pieces and their screws, and the long clamping strap No.1 from the Carrier No.1 contained in the "Set and Standard Kit" (and return the unused parts to Stores).

(My recollection from reading far too many manuals while scanning them.)
