Radio Room, HMCS Margaree

In this informal snapshot, a sailor sits in HMCS Margaree's radio room, surrounded by radio equipment.

The sailor, wearing denim working dress, is surrounded by a variety of equipment, including radio receivers with semi-circular dials showing the frequencies to which they could be tuned. A battle lantern, intended to provide light in emergencies when the ship's lighting systems failed, is mounted on the bulkhead in the background.
