I'm 67 y/o, and an ex electrician, technician, with many interests in vintage valve/radio gear, as passed on from my Father! I've recently, (over the last year or so), acquired many old pieces of valve/tube equipment, (mainly radios), that I intend to re-build into working condition. And I hope that within this Forum I can discuss some of my specific desires in this field, & hopefully work both ways!!!

Thank you my friend!!! I think some of my 'acquisitions' are quite interesting, including one of my 'oldest' pieces being an old original 'Crosley 51-A/B'. with which I love the very old 'Book' Capacitor for the Tuning!! Some of my pieces I will need help with, for the likes of re making moulded 'plastic' parts as dial faces... but I'll shut up for now!! Sorry... I'm just excited for the future here...
P.S. I will endeavour to post future posts/statements in their correct place!!

Welcome to V-R.

Suggest creating threads in Tech Talk with the name of each radio in the thread subject. Makes them easier to find in future.
