Does anybody know how to, or have some instructions for the "Little General" valve radio, published (I believe) in Radio & Hobby's (1940's)

I remember reading an article about it with a circuit.
If I find it again I'll let you know.

The Little General was described a few times over the years that John Moyle was Editor In Chief of R&H. I have quite a number of those magazines and will have a bo-peep tonight.

One convenient way of getting all of R&H is to visit http://store.siliconchip.com.au/Items/13766 and buy their DVD-ROM which has every issue.

A valve a day keeps the transistor away...
