This was the case with British vs German Radios.
The Germans thought the British Radios were junk.
The British made them in droves and every
infantry platoon had some kind of radio with most
AFVs having radios by the end of the war. The
Germans never had enough of their higher quality
radios and were thus hampered by the lack of
communications facilities.
Long live the WS19. Not great, but good enough!
