As far as I know there was no cover for it. It was only the radio set that had a roll up cover

There is a cover quoted in the wireless installation instructions. I've never seen one nor do I have any idea what it looks like. Just a cover? Role up face? Zipper? Domes?

Default cover

I have got a 19 set parts book , for all the different vehicles they were buil for , and there is a drawing in it with the parts for a carrier , but the little cover is to vague to see how it looks.
will take some pictures , it was a real basket case when I found it .
And Bruce how is your FOX comming on , still any missing bits?

I saw one of these canvas covers for the switch box at the Malvern military jumble a couple of years ago. It was in un-issued condition. I was a bit weary and vague on the day and have kicked myself for not buying it. I've never seen one before or since........Bugger!
