Identification request

[Mike Cecil]

Could the MLU Wireless whizzes identify the sets in this image, please?

The set up appears to be two of the same wireless set, and two power supplies. They appear to be British Larkspur series, but I have been unable to identify them precisely.

Assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mike

looks to be a pair of R210 receivers and PSUs.

Hi Bruce,

That was my first thought, but on examination there are a number of differences. The power plug on an R210 is in the top left corner of the front face, for example, whereas this set has it half way down the left side.

Mike, silly question, have you asked on HMVF at all?

If not I would be happy to ask, I am sure someone like Clive Elliott will answer.

So a right hand drive series Land Rover with a unitised radio mounting of some sort?

[Mike Cecil]

Ahhh, Robin of the Black Art of Texting, not a silly question at all: remember, I am a Luddite, so my range of internet forums is as severely limited as my use of a cell phone!! (My flip phone has only just died, so I may have to move into one of those modern flat thingys to replace it)

I don't frequent HMVF, and would be happy for you to ask the question on my behalf. Thank you for offering.

Yes, a Land Rover Series 2 109 inch FFW, with the standard wireless table fit, but this particular combination has me beaten and crying for help. Bruce's suggestion it is 2 x R210 reception sets & PSUs was a good one, but I have discounted that: the PSU for the C11/R210 combination was a common PSU to both sets and the front face is entirely different. The wireless sets in the image also have a different layout on the front face, so not an R210 either (unless there were variants?).

Mike,

Don't put yourself down too much, you are quite swift, trust me.

FFW? I would have said FFR with the R being radio, perhaps FFW was a wartime thing, R was what we called that in the UK. Wireless had connotations of grandad and a pipe and carpet slippers.

Be back at you with suggestions
