    Fantastic! I'd love to stumble on one of these beauties :-D Bit thin on the ground up here. It looks like an Eagle Engineering Mk1 or 2, the drawbar looks to have been strengthened. 1940s/early 50s Alec

    I have been trying to suss this myself. All indications point towards satin (heatproof) black. It may have been gloss when first applied though... I was thrown a red herring before in the shades of eau de nil and sky blue, but I believe these were applied to army recons. It didn't help when I came across an orange factory/dealer reconditioned engine rebuilt in 1956! Alec.

    Hi folks, I'm tracing the history of a vintage lorry I own and have found a gap. Does anyone know of a scrap dealer by the name/nickname of Ron Greek in the Devon area? This would have been between 1994 and 2002. I would like to contact him if possible. Any assistance gratefully received, Alec

    Ah but it also depends on your interests, for some reason most suggest latrine-related things :-D The 14uV/m here is the constant where the other values are extrapolated. The real fun is that on a ship, unlike the general mass of earth, has a variable groundplane which changes due to salinity, sea height, deck-wash etc. Those old sparks had so much to contend with, yet single wire or dipole are still well-trusted systems.

    How did you get on in the end? Alec.

    It had to be comms of some description! The various lengths and heights for different frequencies/strengths have been an embuggerance to shipping for many years!! Thankfully sorted out through a combination of digital and VHF these days.... :-D Alec.

    Radio antennas or direction finders for guiding the tanks onto the beach? Alec

    Nice Montego as well, probably a 1600 from the trim. Alec.

    If it was built in the north of scotland it would serve as the base/spine of a Scroo! :-D Alec

    Not baking, it must be for water boiling then? Very old technology if thats the case! Alec

    Wouldn't have thought so, those poor little nylon slew ring wheelies have a tough enough job as it is!! Alec

    Hi all, I am looking for a twin pulley to fit a Lucas A133 alternator. Were 12v or 12/24v Snatches fitted with A133s, and were they twin pulley? (I have a mental image of the 2nd alternator slung on one side with a single belt?) What did Tithonus use? Alec

    Location of unit command posts? Red Infantry, Blue Armoured? Alec
  24. Rangie
    Or forward position and rear position? Alec
  25. Rangie
    Blue advance, Red retreat? Alec
