Swedish Field Signal Kit
This is a complete Swedish Army Morse code set, issued to link two operators over a run of field wire and packed in its own fitted wooden chest. It holds two headsets, their hand control boxes, a central junction box, coiled connecting cables and a spool of field wire on a metal winder. Collectors of Cold War signals equipment, reenactors building a Scandinavian radio post and military history enthusiasts get the whole station in one box rather than a single orphaned component.
Features
- Two Operator Headsets — Each headset has large olive drab earcups with padded seals and an adjustable padded headband to cut out surrounding noise.
- Strap-On Microphones — Each headset carries a pair of round black microphone elements on a hook-and-loop strap, worn at the throat so the hands stay free.
- Hand Control Boxes — Compact olive boxes with a rotary knob and a toggle switch sit on fabric straps so each operator can keep the controls within reach.
- Central Junction Box — An olive drab hub with multiple connectors ties the headsets and cables together into one working circuit.
- Coiled Connecting Cables — Heavy black coiled cords stretch out to give the operators room to move and spring back to keep the station tidy.
- Field Wire on Winder — A large coil of black field wire, the insulated line used to run signals between positions, comes wound on a steel carrying frame.
- Fitted Wooden Chest — A divided wooden case with separate compartments for the headsets, cables and wire spool keeps every piece in its place.
- Reinforced Case Exterior — The green-painted chest has a riveted perimeter, metal corner caps and two heavy over-center latches on the front.
- Original Stenciled Markings — The lid is stenciled M8321-807210, LOTFNUTR, ART/GRK/S and 14 KG in white, the way it left Swedish military stores.
Swedish Military Issue
Everything in the set is genuine Swedish Army equipment, finished in the olive drab used across Swedish signals gear and stored in its original issue chest. The lid stencils carry the Swedish stock number and nomenclature, and the case is marked with a 14 kg (about 31 lb) packed weight. A complete, cased set with its matching wire spool is harder to find than loose headsets, which is what makes this one worth having on the shelf or at a display table.

Swedish marine artillery telephone set.This is not a telegraph set. It is a local telephone set for artillery fire control aboard a Swedish Naval vessel. I have been trying to translate the very complete manual on Google Translate. This is the 830 set without the battery box and terminal block. I think that by hooking up a voltage source to the plenum it would work (2.5V ? 12.5V). I haven't translated it yet. I anticipate many hours of fun with this set.

My coolest piece of military surplus yet!When I took this thing out of the box of peanuts I could not believe the condition of the wooden box,the markings are all clear and bright the hardware is perfect, then I opened it, the one I received looks like brand new, some of the stuff was sealed in bags still like it was frozen in time.the wires are in great condition,the headsets and all of the connectors are like it was put away and forgotten about in some climate controlled storage facility because the box closes perfectly and not warped at all,,absolutely no water or moisture damage at all If you purchased surplus like I have over the years most of the time it's like you never knew what you were gonna receive, I am truly pleased to say that KS has never,ever,let me down. That is why I have never written a negative review,Amazing! If I had the money I would buy four more of these and put them up because you can in this condition be assured this will just gain value. If you have any doubt about buying this at all , do not hesitate , buy it quickly before they sell out,I called a friend of mine that had this in his cart and told him to pull the trigger on this while he can. This is such a cool thing to have for SHTF now I need to learn morse. Thank you KS for finding such a good quality item for such a good price. Really, buy these while you can,you will not be sorry.
