Well guys a old friend and his wife came to visit yesterday and I demonstrated the bluetooth setup I have on the old Reliance I played the Declaration Of War between Japan and Australia by the then priminister Curtin. And it was just like reliving the moment. Yes I know its a 1946 Reliance but the effect was enormous. . I got that recording directly of the National Film and Sound Archives website and believe me there are heaps more.

Well I finally put the finishing touch on this old set . A friend supplied me with a dilapidated control panel and I had it copied. Not bad at all.
