WWII aircraft ammeter/voltmeter gauge ID

This thread was very helpful to me in identifying a similar gauge.

I suspect that the unidentified gauge may be an Air Ministry 10A/12667 as described here. An external aerial current meter used for one of the bands on the T1154 transmitter.

I am brand new here and I'm not sure that I will be back often. I will try to PM user whitleyproject however I suspect that that won't work.

Hi Jim, that looks identical to Ae current gauge used on the 1154.
Suggest you keep visiting this forum as there are many membedrs interested in this type of gear.

Hi

It's a very common aerial ammeter. Here top right on a Stirling Bomber.

Cheers

Nothing much left but a "3" just to the right of centre.
