You know - I was thinking... it's just a radio - what the heck would you need a manual for. So I figured I'd download the manual to see what it was about.

My goodness - it makes you really appreciate the radios we have today. I guess that is why those old birds had a radio operator...

Its really something to see in some of the old totally restored bombers. Your right though, it does make you appreciate today's technology.

Smile R1082 Manual PLUS!!

My story how I aquired one of these radio's might be of interest?

I agree, it's really great to be able to read the R1082 manual!!!!

As a lifelong collector of WW2 RAF Radio's to have owned a fully working
R1082 that I was given 45 years ago, very special indeed!!
I had always wanted to find the matching T1083 transmitter, But it was an almost imposible rare item for me to find. Scanning E Bay one day I found one for sale with 7 days until the auction ended with a price of £100 pounds.
In the last few minutes the bidding rose past £500 and continued to rise, finally stopping at nearly £900 Pounds!! As the lucky winner of the auction, The T1083 was sent to me a few days later!!
Now at long last my R1082 receiver has been reunited with it's matching Transmitter for the first time in 66 years.
