WW2 WS38 MTLL No.2 MkII Throat Microphone ZA 19734
This wonderful looking historic military device is a WW2 WS38 MTLL No.2 MkII Throat Microphone ZA 19734.
It has a khaki neck band, rubber covers and a PVC cord culminating in a chrome jack plug; which is not original.
In good cosmetic condition with some surface scuffs and blemishes. It comprises two carbon microphones, which attach to a bakelite junction box before connecting the microphone to the Wireless set 38 and a set of headphones: the latter two items are not included.
Sound was picked up & transmitted as vibrations through the carbon microphone worn just above the Adam's Apple. Air and tanks crews reported that voices could be heard better over background engine noise better than other types of microphones.
It is marked on the rear centre metal label:-
MTLL No.2 Mk II ZA 19734
and DS.3429 on the wire connector
