Carrier set N°3 for what ??

[tankbarrell]

The 38 set utilised its own battery, presumably the standard set battery and as Chris said, was connected to the system using a CU No. 12.

I suspect the plan to fit them in a lot of tanks never quite came to fruition as you often see the extra aerial mounting bracket welded on with no aerial base fitted in wartime photos.

I have seen a drawing of the installation in a Churchill, can't remember where!

Gents,

The Working and Fitting Instructions for W.S. No. 38 Mk II or II* in Churchill Tanks can be found here:

http://www.vmarsmanuals.co.uk/archiv...chill_Tank.pdf

On page 18 you can observe the nomenclature for 2 different "Carriers":

"ZA 16870 Wireless Sets No. 38 Mk II or II* Carriers No. 4" is used in Churchill
III and IV.
"ZA 17203 Wireless Sets No. 38 Mk II Carriers No. 5" is used in Churchill I and II.

So the Carrier under discussion is not for a Churchill but it may house a No. 38 set in a different vehicle.
