[Mjolnir331]

Type 3 MK 2 radio from Norway. This has also been used post war as a part of Operation Gladio, as evident from some of the documents that came with the set.

As you can see, it's missing a few parts such as the morse key and headphones. If anyone has any spares, please contact me

Very nice one! The B2 stays my favorite transceiver

Great set. Bravo.

Strange B2 Radio part

Picked up another couple of B2 radios and this odd power supply came with one of them. I have never seen one of these before and I was wondering if anyone had any information regarding it?

[SiPo]

Pin connector as found in the standard B2 supply unit.
