Chinese Army Tube Field Telegraph

Yes, this is genuine Red Army. These were made in the 1950s and 60s and used in the vietnam war during radio silence. The tube based design is more similar to WWII equipment. This telegraph sent an impulse along a cable or wire to another telegraph (over considerable distance).

I purchased this from a collector and restored it to operation and built it a power supply to replace the messy 45V and 1.5V battery packs used originally.

Pictures, Etc to come....
