TWO-WAY RADIO SET
FOR AUSTRALIAN SOLDIERS. An Australian foot-soldier will be able to carry a complete broadcasting and receiving radio station on his back when a new type wireless outfit is issued to the Australian Imperial Force. The equipment will be carried on the back like an ordinary infantry pack. It is an adaption of the infantry Morse radio set used in England. The British set required two men for twoway working, but the Australian set enables one man to transmit by radiotelephone and receive with headphones. It will enable scouts to work singly, giving running commentaries on their observations as they go.
