  • Notes

  • The 6924 Mk 2 is a small portable unit in a rainproof "lunch box" with clip-on lid and built-in antenna tuner. A small compartment on the left side gives storage space for the microphone. The antenna and ground push-terminal connections are on the front panel. Colours are green and cream (6924 Mk 2) or blue and grey (6924-S Mk 2). The units are engineering masterpieces and easy to work on. An ideal radio for solar power supply (note receiver current). The 6924 Mk 2 has been used in many out of the way places -off-shore islands, Antarctica, and throughout the Pacific.
