Fu 8 -
Command tank 30-watt radio set (full identification -
Fu 8 SE 30) consisted of Mw.E.c receiver and
30 W.S.a transmitter. Used for long range
communications to the staff commanders.
Our
30 W.S.a (mod.1) is an early version of the 30-watt
transmitter with special metal ring in the middle of
the front panel. This ring helped mechanically fix the main tuning
knob to prevent from operating frequency drift caused by armored
fighting vehicle vibrations.
Late
version of 30 W.S.a transmitter (mod.2) could be found
elsewhere in this showcase, too.
