Lo1UK35 [SE42444/b + c] [Kriegsmarine]
The rig was used for short distance VHF communications between ships,
and marine coast fortresses in an area

My rig seen from different angles

Loosening five 'red-marked' screws, you may divide the transceiver into two blocks

Few douzens M2,5 screws later... nothing really exciting to see, but...
it is a good idea to open it every 60th year, brush off the corrosion with steelwool ,
and cover the surface with vaseline oil.

Lo1UK35 vs Torn.Fud2
Lo1UK35 uses RX-RF-valve as mike-amplifier, while Torn.Fu.d2 uses the RX audio amplifier

Stein Torp (LA7MI) mentions the frequency correction used in this set, he hasn't seen similar in other sets.
A very small capacitor (12) is tuned with filament voltage and will correct transmitter frequency drift with
somewhat varying filament supply voltage.

Most capacitors in my set were stuck, but loosened with oil and 2-26 after many years, it was the same fault as for Torn.Fu.b1
and Torn.Fu.c., perhaps somewhat more complicated. So it is better to be prepared that such can happen and do the
required maintenance before it is too late!

If you don't have the original box, it is fairly easy to build a surrogate box from wood.
This has been used at Batt. Vara and mounted in the frame on the wall
