Equipment

Marconi cr100 / 2

The CR100 was a high grade HF receiver primarily used for fixed services, with frequency coverage of 60kHz-30MHz. Several versions of the CR100 were produced, starting with the prototype, CR100, and continuing with models designated CR100/1 through CR100/8. The CR100/1, CR100/4-CR100/8 were also called the Admiralty Model B28 receivers. 'Admiralty Pattern B28' was the standard MF/HF receiver on the Royal Navy and Royal Canadian Navy ships in World War II. CR100 sets were at the cutting edge of technology when produced in the late 1930s and 1940s.
