Default Re: Receiver identification [GEC RC410]

Hi All,
I seem to remember that the statutory radio fit on the QE2 was Marconi, so it is very likely that the Redifon R408 was provided as the receiver as MIMCo were using the Redifon receiver widely at that time (along with some other marine radio suppliers like Hagenuk)
The R408 was ahead of it's time in being SSB ready, switch selection of USB and LSB being provided along with the "sliding doors" IF filter.
