Description
You are bidding on a NICE example of a 100% original WW2 German Wehrmacht / Luftwaffe Ukw.E.e VHF Panzer Radio Receiver! This was used in various Tanks, Tank Destroyers, and Armored Cars!
The radio receiver UKw.E.e is a superheterodyne Ultra Short Wave radio used in many vehicles. Part of the complete FuG 5 radio system, it was used in the Sd.Kfz.101, Sd.Kfz.141, Sd.Kfz.141/1, Sd.Kfz.141/2, Sd.Kfz.142, 10.5 cm K18 auf Panzer-Selbstfahrlafette, Kugelblitz, Wirbelwind, Flakpanzer IV, Sd.Kfz.171, Sd.Kfz.267, Sd.Kfz. 269, Sd.Kfz.173, Sd.Skf.173/1, Sd.Kfz.181, Sd.Skf.267/268, Sd.Sfk.166, Sd.Sfk.166/1, Sd.Sfk.184, Sd.Sfk.251/3.
Yellow marked equipment = “Gelbstrich”- Gerate: intended for intercom modification.
Used to communicate between tanks and other vehicles, this radio is in VERY GOOD used condition! Made by Telefunken, it does feature some slight marks, corrosion, and wear, but nothing that detracts. Though the knob on the “Fern/Nah” switch has broken off, it still functions. 100% COMPLETE internally, and mechanically functional, however, I do not know if it is electrically functional. As such, I am selling this “as-is”. Various manufacture marks and Waffenamts throughout! The outer lid/cover is missing (common), but those do come up by themselves quite frequently, so it should be easy to replace. I have indicated its location in the last photos (Panzer III). Would be a PERFECT addition to any collection or restoration project!
