Welcome
On this and the following pages you can find out
about another one of my passions: radio equipment, used during World War II.
A lot is written about the heroes of this
horrible war, who gave their lives, got wounded or at least suffered.
I dedicate
these pages and my humble collection to the anonymous men and women in the
factories and laboratories who also contributed, by putting all of their ingenuity
to work to create the tools of the trade for the heroes, making it possible for
them to liberate Europe.
Limited in space, as I am, I have to restrict my collection to only a few, but very well known
radio's.
In order to keep them in working condition I have some old testing
equipment, that can also be found on these pages. And then there are some
interesting items from other era.
My latest project is to recreate the Whaddon
Mk-VII receiver/transmitter, a.k.a. The Paraset. This miniature radio was built
for spies and resistance men to work behind enemy lines.
Also the history of Triplett measuring equipment
can be found on this web site.
I hope your visit rubs off at least some of the
fun I have maintaining and using the equipment shown, and sharing the
information on it. Feel free to send in any comments or additional
information to:
