    You've got an MV where you can hear a buzzer when driving? :shocked: Andy

    I'm assuming that this is the rain cover for the poor b**gers who have to sit outside behind the cab in the REME Stalwart variant. Andy

    The title of this thread had me initially wondering why anyone would think the DVLA was a reconstituted classic ... :nut: Andy

    So we haven't sold the Ludgershall railhead along with the rest of the site? Andy

    Ray - email the Bovington library at library@tankmuseum.org and tell them you're after copies of the record cards. Judging from your photos your vehicle has been converted back to a 432 (all those seats!) although that may have happened in civilian hands. Andy

    Correct - most flasher units are dependent on the correct load to get the flash rate correct. It's deliberate so that on older vehicles if one bulb fails the remainder flash quickly to warn the driver. More modern vehicles can sense individual bulb failure anyway. Andy

    Agreed - a vehicle can only comply with the Construction & Use Regulations that were in force at the time, they can't be retrospective. Andy

    No, just browsing Milweb. I'd like a Scorpion at some stage but need to finish the other projects first! Andy

    Try removing the spurious "Nave" from the end of the link - there's some track from Mr Galliers. Andy

    Completely coincidentally I've just ordered up some LED BA15Ds from eBay to replace the 21W P21s in my RB44's roof lights. The originals use more power than the radios! Andy

    Thanks Iain! Andy

    Thanks Iain - I suspect the transformer may well run out of steam at 2m. Andy

    I came across this thread and thought I'd reopen it as I'd like to know if the OP or anyone else has had success modifying a Clansman vehicle antenna for use on the amateur 2m band. I'm unsure of the frequency response of the transformer in the standard VHF spacer ring. Andy

    Ray - Your first port of call is the library at Bovington, if you haven't tried them already. They'll give you copies of the record cards showing the vehicle's history. It can all be done by 'phone and email and isn't expensive. Andy

    You might try Tippers Vintage Plates in St. Austell? Andy

    The Elefant's repaint was featured in an episode of "Tank Overhaul" on Discovery, if I recall correctly. A shame they didn't get it running, but even the Germans had trouble with that! Andy

    Welcome aboard, but some more details about yourself would be helpful! Andy

    Jyn Erso's pistol blaster in Rogue One had a Luger P08 toggle bolt. Andy

    There were several on Milweb recently, I don't know if they sold or not. Andy

    As said in the linked thread, try to recover them with a decent pulse charger such as PulseTech. If you use a conventional charger designed for wet lead acid batteries you'll kill them. Andy

    Does this help? http://www.clarkmasts-usa.com/src/product/catalog/military/PU-Masts.pdf It's made by Clark Masts on the Isle of Wight and a quick email will probably result in a manual by return. Andy

    I think it's a two-edged sword. Facebook is entirely the wrong medium for this sort of thing as it doesn't have many of the capabilities of a proper bulletin board, but it does attract other Facebook users who may not otherwise look at specialist boards. My personal preference would be to use Facebook as a gateway into a specialist board like this one. Andy
