This particular book was originally on Endeavour II and my signature appears on the Change page as having inserted Change 1 in April 1968. I served on Endeavour II from August 66 until August 68.

In the event of a nuclear blast, the following EMP would normally take out the front end of all electronic equipment. I believe this Rx was designed to withstand that and continue operating.

I was an Ard posted to Navradsta (north head) and was detailed to go to Whangaparoa as the sparker -- A gunnery class was on course and needed live firing of the bofor which was situated ontop of the bunker that was the communications office -- everytime they shot all this dust dropped down onto myself and the equipment -- I was in contact with Whenuapai on 5mhz callsign either Zkx or Zky as there was aircraft flying around (a hercules) spent all day there -- they only had the 618/cas when I was there no uhf equipt.

The equipment shown in the photo is not a CUJ Receiver, it's a 692 Transmitter.
The CUJ Receiver had a self contained power supply and only one tuning unit mounted to the left of the front panel.
I can clerley see in the photo a power supply mounted below the radio set and two tuning units, the one on the left is for tuning the trpler and the one on the right is for tuning the final RF output stage.
