  1. It might well do Robin, at the time the EMER applied to Rover 8, 9, 10 & 11 There was an earlier EMER that covered the fitting of 4 brackets to Rover 8 & 10. This was not so elegant & only provided 4 lashing points for "a suitable length of rope obtained locally."
  2. Welcome Dan do you have the chassis number or better still the military registration which is likely to be xxFLxx or xxGFxx? I might be able to give you some basic history, There is some general info here & a forum https://shorlandsite.com/
  3. EMER WHEELED VEHICLES Q 029 Misc, Instr, No.45 Applique stretcher kit. LV6/MT13/6530-99-804-4920 Originally issued 22 Nov 1968, title amended June 1972
  4. Thanks for saying thanks, it does make a difference. If you get stuck there is more in the AESP but it is too much to copy all in full. Might work you on the air one day, 73 de GW4MBS
  5. You're probably aware of this thread: https://hmvf.co.uk/topic/32129-racal-feild-phone-uk-ptc-404/#comment-497683 Circuit diagram to be going on with flow charts 2 & 5 to follow.
  6. Clansman in Ferret was covered in the sequence EMER COMMUNICATION INSTALLATIONS K 670-679
  7. Well done Kevin fixing it yourself. Far more satisfying than just randomly replacing units in the hope that it might be cured. Having the right publications is key to a diagnosis.
  8. Is the diagonal actually a small rope that is attached to the sling point to the left of the sign? It seems to droop a little then stretches up towards the cab area, and appears thicker on the right as suggested above because it is more shadowy?
  9. Ok thanks Sean would be interesting to see a later version. Although MOD abbreviations are often rather broad in their coverage that don't include whole ranges of abbreviations peculiar to particular arms of service. As you know often identical abbreviations crop up with quite diverse meanings and even within that arm of service can change with time that makes interpretation challenging.
  10. Looks like it is in East Sussex to save you having to download the form to find out where it is being held.
  11. Sean yes I'm also inclined to agree with Richard. Is that later document on line somewhere?
  12. You could be right Richard but I posted the only official reference to A/C that I could find and this was from MOD Acronyms and Abbreviations Dec 2008
  13. I think you will find that A/C = Aircraft and ADT were the auctioneers who functioned primarily from Aston Down.
  14. Apart from the Rapier role, the Asset Code RB17264100 confirms that it was in RAF service.
  15. Chris I see what you mean, it does have of sort of Government contract ring to it, but it might even be for say the Ministry of Transport?
  16. Yes, that is a useful diagram, it comes from the UHB for the winterisation kit to show the existing system before fitting the additional bits for the insulation jacket. There was also an immersion heater kit. I can't remember how I found out but I think there were only 3 full kits supplied to the Army & 7 to the RAF.
  17. Here you go Ted, the only other pics are of the installation kit by itself.
  18. Yes the clever thing about WCP is that they are so versatile that one or more can convert a GS truck or trailer into a water bowser, without having to have single purpose vehicles & trailers that can fulfil no other role.
  19. The tap plug is nylon coated & the sealing rings are of nitrile rubber. The maintennance instruction requires no lubricant just to "Regularly examine equipment and accessories and report any damage." Although the WCP was intended to be used in a 3/4 ton trailer, it was also intended to be fitted into a 3/4 ton Rover.
