WIRELESS SET No. 48 MkI*
Year 1942

Wireless Set No.48 is housed in a ribbed stell case embodying a rucksack frame. The front of the case is closed by hinged metal flaps and a canvas hood. This hood, which is open when operating the controls of the set, gives protection against bad weather conditions. The set is intended primarily for short range communication within infantry battalions and R.A regiments and provides facilities for radio telephony and continuous wave telegraphy.
