Receiver Type Ukw.E.d1.
(Germany)
The German HF receiver type Ukw.E.d1
was a component
of Wireless Station No. Fu.3 and Fu.7 in the German Army, and was used
by
signal troops and armoured troops for air-ground co-operation. It
would have been used in conjunction with transmitter type 20 W.S.d.
The receiver
covers
a frequency range of 42.1 - 47.8 MHz and uses 9 side-pin valves type
RV12P2000.
The internal construction is very advanced
for
its time, using a system of aluminium alloy die castings to contain and
screen
the circuits. The valves are plugged directly into the screening
sections
of the castings with their bases flush with the top surface. See
photographs below.
