Hi Robin

In the 1950s and early 1960s, the Larkspur series were generally all 'wireless', it was the US that used 'radio' (and antenna instead of aerial). By the end of the 1960s, just about everyone had converted to 'radios' with 'antennas'. I stuck with FFW (Fitted for Wireless) as that was the nomenclature used when the vehicle pictured was under development.

Interestingly, the same vehicle type at the same time was listed as an FFR when fitted with US sourced radios. Go figure: wonder what the Aust Army called a vehicle with a US and a Brit radio!!
