If you know your subject or have a specific interest, please message with any background information that you are happy to share. I would be more than happy to hear your thoughts.
In the meantime, feel free to watch, awaiting updates, but I
can provide the following basic information:
- This includes a double sided info sheet headed Marconi CR100 and also has a hand written name on the top.
- I have located HMS Flying Fox down in Bristol and have contacted them for any information or provenance they can provide - It appears to be a Training centre - A Royal Navy Reserve Unit & Training Base.
- There is also Flying Fox Association.
- HMS Flying Fox was a '24 Class Fleet Sweeping Sloop' built in 1918 and was based in the River Avon, Bristol until 1973.
- Most of the details are in the title or the pictures.
- B28 preceded the CR100 - The former is also likely to have been made by Marconi
- B28 was in active Naval use from 1950s - 1960s
- Obviously I have no idea on the state of the internal workings but accept that this is a Non Worker for obvious reasons - not to mention the "Valve" word.
