    That has been in the Science museum before since I seem to recall it from a wartime exhibition they had on when I was young and willing to breath the polluted air of Exhibition road.
    Now its a death trap since the have made a lot of it shared space.

    I got to the page from the BBC section so thought it was connected to
    that but seems to be a marine transmitter, there was one also in the Collingwood Historic Collection.

    Interesting listening to the recording of Peter Donaldson, rather
