I'll have to see how these Mato gearboxes fair.

Aiy, another project Jim! But a good one! At least you have Herman and Sir J. to keep you straight on historical accuracies! I too always liked that stubby 75mm with the antenna sweeper below it! Congrats and it'll be fun to see what you do with it!

Cheers,
Eric.
