Hi all, im sure we have some PMG/Telecom/Telstra techs on here.

I have been helping my Uncle recently, he used to work for PMG in the Calibration Section.

I havn't been able to find any information on any of these books or diagrams. I am thinking i will scan them all in and share publicly.

The 2 PMG books would appear to be training manuals and the third book i have with one example contains lots of schematic diagrams in reference to no16, im presuming telephone and other diagrams labeled with exchange and MDF side it has perhaps 30 pages or more of information, some hand drawn, the only information i can find on no16 is the Ericsson skeleton telephone, which he had some of.

The other interesting thing i found were these wooden box's with some very detailed work inside them, im guessing they were used and built to be a calibration standard. I hooked one upto my bench meter and it reads as labeled even after all these years.

Also if anyone knows of a good telephone type forum that would be good to post this information on let me know.

Yes I was a PMG Tech. The last year of the T.I.T.s (1970).
I was trained and examined using those kind of books.
Thanks very good to see some of these books again.
The previous intake years have had a tradition of 5 and 10 year celebrations, being the last we were not introduced to that idea, always felt a bit left out.
Bet Mr Miles is up there, still riding that Triumph.
