New SOUNDS!

SEE PAGES 8 & 9 FOR NEW AUTHENTIC SOUND CLIPS OF CCF NET ACTIVITY FROM THE OLD DAYS!!!

Like a lot of young boys growing up in Britain in the 1960s and 1950s, I had a great interest in anything to do with radio, music, TV. Any kind of entertainment would help to ease the boredom and make our world more colourful and exciting. This was the world that we inherited from our fathers; a world in which the SIGNAL CORPS was a vital factor in the survival of western democracy and morality against a world of mechanized Nazism and destruction.

The armed forces of the USA and Great Britain had procured such a VAST array of radio and electronic equipment, parts, tubes etc. for World War Two era, that the surplus STILL exists today as I write this 50 years later, in October 1997, and one can still purchase these items in shops, at radio rallies, hamfests, on the internet etc.

The following are memories of the activities that some were privileged to enjoy as members of the COMBINED CADET FORCE (CCF) radio network, which was operated in the 5mhz range.

Does anyone know anything about LABGEAR (by PYE) radio equipment?


I need to find out something about a frequency multiplier device that was apparently made as an accessory for the Labgear 160 Twin transmitter back in the late 1950s or early 1960s.

Does anyone have any instructions for connecting up this band conversion unit? It looks like a series of multi-gang switches with flying leads, and a control knob labelled for 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 metres.

Any ideas, leads or advice would be greatly appreciated.
