I have spent ages doing Google searches and finished up here! My wife has inherited a Healing Golden Voice radio from her mother and wishes to restore it to working condition. We know nothing of valve radios. But I found some contacts in the Services Directry, one in Rockhampton and one in Tamworth, and the message from Rudy. So will be busy making contact. We are in Toowoomba Qld so if anybody has any valve radio repair contacts up there please advise. This may be the making of a new interest! Looks a great Forum.

I just found a handy looking business at Rosewood East of Toowoomba - "Electronic Valve and Tube Company":
