WWII German Wehrmacht Radio – Torn.E.b /24b-305 – With Morse Code Handset – Original Untouched – Rare
The Telefunken Torn.E.b /24b-305 (Spez 976 Bs) receiver was the end product of a series of Telefunken ‘portable’ receivers developed mainly for field use from the late 1920s onwards. They were intended for use both as a general purpose field receiver and as an accompanying receiver for a number of transmitters of the type normally found installed in signals trucks. The receiver frequency coverage is from 100kHz to 6670kHz. The earliest version was designed by Telefunken in the late 1920s as Spez 276 Bs and this was revamped in the early 1930s as Tornister Empfanger (portable receiver) Spez 445 Bs. By later standards it could be described as clumsy. Not unlike the National HRO, it employed plug-in coil units (three of them marked Kurz, Mittel and Lang) to cover the frequency range (see cover photo). The circuit employed four triode valves type RE 074 powered from a 90 volt battery and a 4.8 volt alkaline accumulator (type NC10). Radio, batteries and accessories were all in one case – quite a load for the signalman! With the development of the military general purpose two volt filament pentode valve (RV2 P800) the set was redesigned and split into two cases, one for the radio and one for the batteries and accessories. If necessary, the two cases could be clipped together. The plug-in coil system was dispensed with and replaced by an integral rotating coil turret. Trials with this equipment pointed to a need for some ergonomic improvements and some simplification of controls and other slight changes resulted in a more ‘user friendly’ front panel. The rectangular power supply plug and socket were replaced by a circular five pin connector which became standard for much field equipment. Thus, in 1936/37 the Telefunken Torn.E.b Spez 976 Bs was accepted for Wehrmacht use as the Torn.E.b/24b305 ( also known outside Germany as the AE95). Comments: This is an early model, with the original morse code handset, with Waffenamt stamps.

This training was to apply to the Junker Ju 88. Nachtjagdgeschwader 101 Arriving in September 1944 to his unit in Germany. He would by December 1944 moved into a ground fighting unit. Ending up with Panzer Grenadier Regiment 11 (9 Panzer Divsion) Just in time for engagements in the Ardennes 1944/45 – The division then took part in the Ardennes Offensive, where it was deployed west of the Meuse. The battles for Rochefort, and later for Donchamps and Longchamps, were purely defensive in nature. On February 7, 1945, our own HKL was back on the West Wall. From February 24th to March 4th, 1945, the division fought for the Erft section, Erkelenz and the artillery defense positions. In the battle for Cologne there was heavy house-to-house fighting. After the loss of the city, the division set up a final defensive position on the Cologne – Frankfurt / Main highway. From March 25, 1945, it moved via the Sieg into the Betzdorf – Siegen area on the southern front of the Ruhr basin that was forming. Here the division went into American captivity at the end of April 1945. By March of 1945, Schmidt was awarded the wounds badge in black for fighting in early March against US Troops. He arrived in Heilbronn Hospital and was likely taken a POW. Interesting Soldbuch, from the skies to the ground he seen it all. Also desirable unit for the Battle of the Bulge.
