simon king Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I have a question, Is the original Spare Valves Case that came with the 19 Set (ZA3104?} the same dimensions as the later case which is marked up as being universal for the 19/22 Sets Just trying to sort out stowage arrangements in the MWR thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatchFuzee Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Military Canada: Case Spare Valves Wireless Set No. 19 Dimensions (WHD) 6.12 x 6.75 x 6 inch / 155 x 171 x 152 mm https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/mil_can_case_spare_valves.html If you look at the photos and description on this page (1/3 of the way down) the valve box for the 19, 19/22 and 22 all appear identical. https://www.royalsignals.org.uk/photos/ws22/index.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon king Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 Thanks for your help. Looks like it’s back to the drawing board though as the 18/22 box I have is too small for the frame. Was hoping the original 19 set box might have been a bit larger to better fit the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatchFuzee Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 What size is the frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon king Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 External dimensions are 17” x 7.5”. There is a drawing in WftW Vol 2 of a possibly similar frame fitted in a jeep equipped with a 19:set and RF amp filled with two valve boxes, one for the set and a generic one for the amp, so I wondered if a similar frame was fitted as standard in the MWR, despite all the lockers and bins provided.
