Wireless Set No. 19 Mk II - totally HAM-ed
On this page I want to introduced a WS19 that was totally HAM-ed. A
HAM, Hans PA3CNV used this WS19 to experiment and rebuild it the way
he thought was best. This page is a tribute to those pioneers that
used their imagination that lead to SDR radios the size of a USB
stick. A Youtube movie of this WS19 can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3wdqAGdxaM You may click the photos to enlarge in a new frame. |

WS19Mk-II, made by Philco Corp. USA. Serial number: 08779 Many controls are replaced and/or added. The front panel is repainted and a new legend is applied. |
|
The right side shows us a 6k7G replaced by a metal version. Also a DIN-tape socket is added. | |
The back side. Again, a 6K7 replacement. Many other additions, a.o.: output
transformer, Miniwatt tube, instrument, PSU. B-set, intercom and TX-stage are gone. |
|
Better look at the PSU. Transformer from an old domestic Philips radio.
Other parts from the tube colour tv era. Big hole in the front to accomodate the instrument. |
|
TX parts are gone. | |
The bottom. Lots of room, there! | |
