A big thanks to VK5TM, VK2CSW &VK2ZIW for all the info....
it is all extremely interesting BUT way over my head I am afraid....
I am not sure what use it is to me other than a eye-catching display piece for my radio room once its set up in the new place.
VK5TM - the hyperlink you attached was very interesting, and yes about halfway down in the radio section there is a radio that looks pretty much identical....
So at this stage the general consensus is that it is probably marine band radio and possibly used by the (US or NATO) defense forces stationed here during the second world war.... would this be accurate ?
