My bit was a only small part in the success story, it was great to see the good outcome where a joint problem solving approach won the day.

A big thank you to kalee20 for emailing me photos that have helped me identify a missing piece on my vintage sewing machine case. Now I know what the piece looks like I think I remember removing it many years ago, just now need to try and find it.

Never received the PM but don't worry about it. The postage won't break me, just hope the set is back on the air.

Thanks to ScottBouch for the multi way audio gear connector for my RACAL Squadcal radio, which arrived today.

I am sure I can rework it to take a suitable drop cable to connect with the Clansman pressel box I have here.

Welsh Anorak for the valve amp to keep my existing one company in stereo.
Wendymott for the data drives to give an old laptop a new lease of life.

Re: The Thanks Thread
 
After stopping repairing as a business earlier this year and now having completed the clearance of my workshop, I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks to everyone on this forum who over the last few years have continued to make me welcome, offered advice and help, supplied me with hard to find bits etc etc. Also to Paul Stenning for continuing to make this excellent community available. I hope I have also been able to offer value both in advice and bits & pieces.

I am still going to be here on the forum, just thought it a good moment to say thank you everyone!

A big thank you to new forum member from Denmark, bonielsen, who answered my request for replacement transistors for my Bush Arena receiver. He was kind enough to send me a couple, together with a beautiful Arena pin badge.
It is all very much appreciated!
