Hi all

I am not having much luck restoring one of my Tin Portable receivers. I have 2 parts that I am after to get the radio operational again.

The first part is the shutter switch. the one I have is completely broken. Someone has "had a go" at fixing it by bypassing the switch.

The other part is the Mains I/P terminals. they have been chopped off and the mains cord soldered onto the stubs. The cut-out switch has been held back by elecytape!

Does anyone have a mains plug for this type of set so I can make up the pins for the plug.

Thanks

Daniel
