- How did you find this site?: Searching for data on a mullard LP1185 AM radio module - How long have you been collecting vintage radios?: Since age 7?, 43 years. But I just broke them up
My Decca mw/lw/vhf made in 1961? uses leading edge AC and AF
transistors, and does not suffer radio breakthrough.
My Ultra of 1950's still works no restoration.
My HMV radiogram of 1970 does suffer from radio breakthrough. But the
sound quality exceptionally good for a music centre or anything of
that era.
I once had a beautifully well made working 6Volt AM valve car radio
with a heavy cast compartmentalised body. I still have some of the
bits from it.

Good Evening Paul, Excellent website and great to see some useful
stuff available for us radio guys. Particularly appreciated is the
supplement. I am working on bringing an R1155N back to life. I retire
in 2 years and 6 months so it MAY be back by then! My main rig for SWL
is a Yaesu FRG7700 with a grundig Yacht Boy as stand by. Great site
mate, keep 'er rolling, 73 de Gary

Hi, Just dropped by to say hello... we picked up a TR82 today
(original not a repro), our whole house is original 50s decor. Just
wanted to say that for a change all it took was a new battery to get
it working!!! Great site, keep it up.

Really like the site - have spent a lot of time exploring it. I'm
restoring a Ferguson 603 at the moment, so also finding the technical
info and forums very useful.
By the way, Paul - in case you're interested, there's a
Ferguson 208 on ebay at the moment (not mine). You mentioned
you'd like to add one to your collection.
