No idea what the 6th Hants is though - is this the (Hampshire Carabiniers Yeomanry? If so, it is a fake knocked up with a LB&B type slider.
re: Sussex Yeomanry - the QC version is rarer than the KC item.
Kingsley - In Anodised Aluminium: The 'No Bull' Cap Badge of the British Army - Appendix 5: Authorised and Manufactured Cap Badges and Appendix 6: Manufactured Cap Badges of the Army Cadet Force and the Combined Cadet Force will give you the info/ that you need.

you knew this would open the flood gates - I have a Glasgow University UC(TA). Its gold in colour, is larger than the usual Glasgow and Strathclyde University OTC badge we recognise. The scroll reads (up the left) GLASGOW UNI and down the right side VERSITY T.C. (T.A.). The slider is a metal slider by GROVE MFG.
Regards all
