This
is the story of the Wireless Set No. 10, a mobile transmitter and receiver,
which allowed the Allied Expeditionary Force to communicate with their
main headquarters as they pursued the German army through the Low Countries
and into Germany. An important source of information in recording the
history of technology is the personal accounts of those involved in the
design and operation of the WS10.
The OHRU collection draws together many contributions on the history of the Wireless Set No.10 by those directly involved in its design and operational use. The aim is to record its history and provide insight into the part played by this equipment in the development of modern telecommunications. A combination of textual description, oral testimony and image is intend to give a fuller appreciation of the significance of the WS10. Much of the support given to this history will be taken from the records and memoirs of those who worked at the Signals Experimental Establishment (SEE) at Warnham Court, during, World War Two. The areas of focus will include:
