The R1155 Royal Air Force Receiver.
The manual for the R1155 Receiver can be downloaded from The Vintage and Military Amateur Radio Society (VMARS) website here:-
http://www.vmarsmanuals.co.uk/r1155/r1155.htm Jones Plugs and Sockets for the R1155 can be obtained from Farnell. Go to their website:- www.farnell.co.uk and do a parts search using the word "jones" The plugs/sockets needed are those in the 2400 series. Note that Farnell do not stock the "correct" "U" shaped shrouds/cable clamps as originally used with the R1155. Some other spare parts including the correct shrouds/cable clamps should be available from this website:- http://www.g4cvu.co.uk/ There are numerous webpages relating to the R1155 including those at Ray Robinson's virtual museum:- http://www.shlrc.mq.edu.au/~robinson/museum/R1155.html those on Martin Swift's website:- http://homepage.ntlworld.com/martin_...reless21a.html and Peter Tranter's Website:- http://www.cordite.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ Many R1155 owners seem to have problems with the slow motion drive. Another thread:- https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...3317#post13317 relating to this can be found in this section. Information on mods to the R1155 including the construction of a PSU can be found on the Vintage Radio and Electronics site:- http://vintageradio.me.uk/military/r1155mods.htm http://vintageradio.me.uk/military/1155_ww1946.htm Please report any dead or incorrect links via a Personal Message to me.
