    Hi all, I'm trying to get the power restored to the radio rack on my Wolf 110 FFR. The cables shown were all wrapped in insulating tape and not connected to anything. I'm assuming that the thick brown cables are the 24v supply from the FFR alternator and on reading the wiring diagram I can see that connector 3 is the twin alternator control socket. I'm guessing that cable number 4 has had the plug cut off and that should go into socket 3?

     

     

    Cable 1 should go onto the fast blow fuse FFR at number 5 on the photo?

     

     

    I can't see where cable 2 should go?

     

     

    I've got some of the Wolf repair manuals but can't seem to find something that shows the FFR power supply connections.

     

     

    Thanks all

  2. Computer animation of the strip down of all the component parts of the

    (this isn't the Haynes manual of weapon teardown:D) but certainly interesting to see all the parts that go into the weapon.

    An expanded arena with a pit to drive in and hopefully out of!

     

    Chinook helicopter arrival - at 2:28 (I get to experience the rotor wash) - The helicopter landed mid morning Saturday and stayed until late afternoon allowing people to inspect it up close and go inside.

  5. Although the new site has good catering facilities if you want an alternative eating out off site whilst staying at the show, the nearby Airport Cafe looks good, open everyday till late and is gearing up for the show with outside seating and its licensed too, large truck parking, turn right out of exhibitors gate short distance along A20 towards Ashford

    Can you recall what the breakfast cost was or any beer prices :-D

     

    Thanks

  6. This was their 1st time holding the show at Aldhurst Farm, Capel, Surrey and vehicle turnout was a bit light from what they were expecting (I would guess Wimbledon + nice weather and too many garden BBQs). They had a great sized field with a very large arena staked out, small funfair and a couple of military wares traders.

     

    Two re-enactment groups (one American WWii and one Soviet with a T-34)

    Heavy armour (T-34, T-54) both with live firing main gun which they fired off in the arena each day, along with a 432 with rarden cannon and Fox turret.

    I was really amazed that this had a valve refacer.

    And the t-54 squished a couple of cars.

    Very good show and we hope to exhibit again next year, the MVT provided a field kitchen and sold subsidised breakfasts for exhibitors. Would be nice to see this at more shows (even W&P!)
