Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me identify an aerial type please? I'm involved with the rebuilding of Donald Campbell's Bluebird K7 hydroplane, which had a Murphy A41 No.2 radio fitted in it, by an Army Corporal. We have a replacement radio unit, but have yet to give much thought to the whip aerial that was fitted with it. (The original was totally lost in the crash)

Here are a couple of pics of the aerial in question-





I have zero idea whether the aerial was a type associated with the Murphy A41, or something sourced from elsewhere. But can anyone please help me to ID it?

Thanks!

Oh dear, I won't get very far if my attachment images aren't allowed!

Hello everyone, me again!

Now I'm on the look out for a battery, NATO Ref. 6135-99-901-2229, Type Ref. NBA 279. Doesn't have to be functional!

As ever, any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
