About this item
This R1155. is a complete set and is in working order. All the valves are present and no work has been carried out on the internal workings of the set.
The R1155 was a British communications receiver commonly used in aircraft along with its associated T1154 transmitter. It was used extensively by the Royal Air Force during World War II mainly in larger aircraft such as the Lancaster, Handley Page, Halifax, Wellington, and the Short Sunderland Some were also used in vehicles and Air Sea Rescue launches.
The R1155 and T1154 sets were manufactured by several British radio manufacturers, including Ekco, Marconi, Plessey, and EMI. Ekco, who manufactured the R1155 and T1154 at its Aylesbury shadow factory carried out extensive development work on both units before putting them into production, significantly improving on the original Marconi design.
