Hi all Brian here from New Zealand . As a newbie I have am trying to repair one of several radios that I have and saw your site and joined up.

I've had an old courier radio that was my Grandfathers who was an electrician and well into the early days of Ham radio. That radio is now going after replacing all of the caps and restoring, repairing the case and Ive now got the bug.

Im not sure how this works but will go to the forum where I can ask a question I hope someone is willing to help me with.
Thanks
Regards
Brian
