Mine arrived last week, another great book Steve.

Steve included a couple of my console, an AWA 276 on page 179 and my rare AWA 283 on pages 185-186. Both have been restored although the 283 needs a bit of work on the motorised tuner. It works okay but is very slow. The 276 pulls in the Sydney stations from 100km away with near FM quality sound. It's a 7 band radio and alignment tables don't exist for it. I adapted the alignment table from a 610 with a bit of trial and error.
