For the open exchange of
information and opinions about collecting, restoring, maintaining and
operating the Wireless Set No. 19 and all other radios, as well as line
and other forms of comms equipment, used by the Allied forces before,
during and after World War II. For organising operating events with
the broadest possible participation. ALL collectors of vintage military
communications equipment are most welcome.
The
Manuals section of this site provides the largest publicly available historical
archive of military communication documentation in the world. Documents
are available for download to members and non-members alike, with no charge.
However, to protect our investment in time and money, all documents are
password protected. Please see below for instructions
on obtaining passwords.

How
to obtain documents.
Nearly all the documents in the manuals
section lists are protected by individual passwords to minimise the possibility
of abuse. If you wish to obtain copies of any documents, you must
submit a request using the form below. Members of The Wireless-Set-No19
Group may request up to 6 documents in any 14 day period, non-members
are limited to just 1 document and must sign up to become a member of
The Wireless-Set-No19 Group if further documents are wanted.
You will be asked for your Member ID (if
you're a member of The Wireless-Set-No19 Group) and if you're not a member
please leave this set to NO, your email address and the red
document numbers for the documents you want. The red
document numbers must be in ascending numerical order. Members please
note that your Yahoo ID must not be an email address and the email address
you enter must be the one with which you registered for the Group.
Our documents are available for personal
study and research by people interested in the history of military communications
technology and not for commercial purposes. Unfortunately we've detected
many attempts to download large quantities of documents, often from free
"disposable" email addresses, so we've had to ban such addresses.
You will find that free email addresses will not be accepted.
Members of The Wireless-Set-No19 Group should note that if you registered
on the Group with a free email address, you will have to change it to
your ISP-supplied address before attempting to apply for documents.
If your request has been completed correctly,
you will be sent an email containing a link to access each requested document
and an individual password for each document. Note that these links may
not be "clickable" and if you encounter problems, the first
thing to try is to copy and paste the complete link into your browser.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader Version 9 to open the documents successfully
(it's free - click here
to download it). When you try to open a document, a Password box
will appear - do NOT try to type the password from our email into the
password box. To ensure success, copy the password from our email
and paste it into the Acrobat password box. Save the document somewhere
and ALWAYS save our email, so you'll be able to find the password again.
Please allow up to 24 hours for the email
to be sent to you. If nothing arrives within that time, the first thing
you should do is to check your "spam" box in case our email
has been put there by your spam filtering service or program. If you've
made a mistake, you will normally receive an email containing an error
message within the same period.
If
you are not a member of The Wireless-Set-No19 Group, please give some
consideration to joining us. You have already shown interest by requesting
material from us. Come and join the group and enjoy the other benefits
that membership provides!
