That green band on Sujits post got me thinking. I remember them and i *think* they are radio fuses that go into the fuse holder on the radios live supply. Spent a long time yesterday trying to find a similar one without success. Please don’t take this as gospel info! I’ve recently been diagnosed with early onset vascular dementia and that means while I can still *remember* many things with great clarity, I may be pointing in the wrong direction while being completely unaware of it:)

Duke of Wellington: “By God, Sir - so you have!”
