C.B. Transmitter-Inset used on the Transmitter No. 1 Mark 236.

Used on Electrophone Stage Circuits and the Transmitter No. 16 (Mark 234).

Carbon granule transmitter introduced in the late 1920's and used in all Bakelite handsets and Candlesticks (when fitted with the Transmitter No. 22).

The mouthpiece cover of the Mark 234 was fixed by 4 screws (these were made in the GPO experimental shop).

The Mark 235 had a graphite electrode and the cover was fixed in place by a concealed spring.

The Transmitter, Inset No. 10B was used with the Transmitter No. 24.

Introduced in 1929 and superseded by the Transmitter-Inset No. 13 in 1939.

Used on Handset No. 186 (Laryngaphone).

Carbon granule transmitter used in all Bakelite handsets and some early 700 type telephones.

There appears to be two variants.  The Mark 1 was all metal construction (Siemens), whilst the Mark 2 had the back part moulded out of black Polystyrene (Ericsson).

Transmitter-Inset No. 13A was used in the Transmitter No. 23 and Bakelite handsets.  There is no cover on this model.

Transmitter-Inset No. 13AA was used in the Transmitter No. 23A.  There is no guard cover on this model.

Transmitter-Inset No. 13B are identifiable by a screw-nut, located on the spring plate, on the rear of the unit.

Transmitter-Inset No. 13C were of similar construction as the Transmitter, Inset No. 13B but were also supplied with a nut on a threaded pin (1/DPL/397) which was pushed into the centre hole at the rear.  This version was used on 700 type telephones.

This Transmitter-Inset No. 13 superseded the Transmitter-Inset No. 10 and was subsequently superseded itself by the Transmitter-Inset No. 16 for 700 type telephones.

Introduced in 1939.
