Maybe off topic but is there anyone who can help me with spares to restore a H2S radar unit type 184a. Thing was removed from a British bomber by local people here in Holland. I would like to restore it visually!!!
Anyone????
Regards,
Adrian

The large circular opening below the main screen is for the height indicator tube, I believe – that could be a tricky component to replace?

They didn’t leave you much did they? 😀
but seriously, you have all of the unique components, just need a few knobs and Pye connectors and a photo to work from. Good luck with your restoration.

That’s the small FISHPOND display? Any chance of a picture so we can see where you’re starting from?

Guess you know this pic already …. and maybe this book is helpful:
‘Echoes of war – The story of H2S radar’ by Sir Bernard Lovell
