Can anyone else remember that there was another 'BBC one-valver' - the plans for which were advertised on the inside back cover of Practical Wireless for years during the late forties/early fifties. Actually, they called it the BBC special one valver but the plans named it the BBC official one valver. That gives you some idea how old the blueprint was: I sent for it, probably around 1953 but decided it was 'too old fashioned' for me. I wish I'd kept the blueprint, though.
