Hello to all the members on this great forum.
My name is Mick I'm from country NSW.
I have been tinkering with and collecting valve radios since I was 11 years old.
My father gave me an awa radiola champion 527ma that he found in an old dairy shed on a farm we had, and since then I haven't been able to get enough of them. I still have the first set he gave me which is quite special to me now as I have had it for over 20 years and my father is no longer with us.
I enjoy finding radios and bringing them back to working order,
I collect them for my own amusement and not to sell on for profit I'm sure my kids will end up with them all eventually anyhow.

Welcome to the site.

There seems to be a run of new members here in recent months. Good to see.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to talking to and learning from others who also have an interest in radio.

I couldn't help noticing that myself. I just checked the logs now and 23 have signed up already in 2016. If those who are yet to post would make themselves known to us in the Member Introductions Forum it would be even better. Wink

Mick, welcome to the Forums.

A valve a day keeps the transistor away...
