Default No18 wireless mounting in Carriers

I am trying to create a 'Wireless Set No 18 Carrier No 2' mounting as shown on the attachment. I can get a repro mount for the wireless set but need to find the details / measurements of the Static battery mount and the 'table' described in the text to which both mounts bolt. I am assuming that the 'table' then fits to the brackets I already have in my carrier shown on the attached photo. If anyone can help with any further details or measurements to assist I would be grateful.
Thanks
Mike Gurr

my carrier still has those brackets on the track guard.. I was going to find out what mounting board etc was used for the 19 sets !

Interesting thread Mike

Yes this is the mount for the 18 set which is the one I refer to in my first post but looking at the line drawing there is another mount/bracket to take the static battery, and then the 'table' referred to in the text to which both these mounts are bolted to. It is the battery mount and 'table' that I need the details of. Most frustrating as this line drawing is the only picture I can find of the whole set up.

Ahh gotcha, check with ww2 fabrications, they might have the schematics or be able to do one up.
