Re: Antenna domes

i think you'll find all the radio installations were the responsibility of whichever contractor had the contract to supply the radios rather than LT staff.

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Re: Antenna domes

Garage electricians did the installation and removals of the cab equipment Roy. They were not on the buses when they went for overhaul.

Radio Technicians may have set them up in the first place, but when they were band 4 as they called it garages did them. The old Storno equipment on this bus was very old and part of the original trials.

My bus number (if any): RTL 960, RM 1585, RML 2667 and several RTs

Re: Antenna domes

Thanks for the correction there. These days they're all done by contractors!
