The D.R. stands for distant reading.

Thanks for the information.

It is available if anyone is in need of it for a project. The freight cost from New Zealand might be a bit painful though!:)

Is this what was called something like Magnasyn.? The master unit would mounted in the fin or somewhere well away from magnetic interference. The heading was transmitted to a slave, or slaves, in the cockpit and nav positions.

Lancaster, etc, etc
