I have a little bit of information regarding the AM 10A/1303 Morse key which seems quite rare. RAF Museum at Hendon was able to send me an excerpt from the 1924 edition of their stores catalogue and dates the 1303 circa 1920. The key was designated for the T.19A and T.21A transmitters which appear to be from the ARC5 stable being for BC696 3.0/4.0 mhz and BC458 5.3/7.0 mhz respectively. That gear of course is WW2, the key from WW1. Perhaps they were never used for the T19 and T21 transmitters because they were superseded by the Bathtub key. If they did not get airborne it would also explain why I cannot find a reference to the aircraft in which the 1303 was used. A lot of that is supposition but that is all I have. By the way I have an AM 10A/1303 in excellent condition.
