Another vote of thanks for David (G4EBT) for sending one of his Minimod PCBs in my direction.

It arrived this morning and looks just the job, he has also included circuit and layout diagrams - all to his usual high standards!

It's much appreciated that he included me in his last production run - I couldn't produce something as good as that.

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

I purchased a Mullard MAS281/15 (aka Philips 170A) in an on-line auction. Sadly, like so many of these sets, the audio o/p tx winding was o/c. Nil desperandum - Ed Dinning came to the rescue with a rewind completed by return of post! Many thanks Ed - fine job. The old Mullard is playing again. Jerry

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

Many thanks to Phil G4SPZ for the Grundig service manual, might just put my two sets further up the “roundtuit” pile!
Cheers!

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

Thank you to the Moderator/unknown that amended my initial post on the Murphy B40D.
Yes it was a frivolous start to the post and I was thinking about it last night after I had retired for the night. I got up extra early this morning (4.00AM) to fix it myself but you had already beat me to it. Gotta admit it was pertinent to the tasks at hand however this is not the place. I agree!
Thank you for doing that for me.
All the very best greetings for the season.

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

A Big thank you to Sean Williams for dropping off a quantity of his excellent video recorders to me on his way to the seaside!

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

I'd like to say a big thank you to the following members without whose help my AM TX project would have stalled (hope I've not missed anyone)

David Simpson for the 6AQ5's,
David G4EBT for the coil former

Malcom G6ANZ for the modulator chassis

Hope I can repay the favour at some point !

Thanks to Mark (mark_in_manc) for the Crown DC300 amplifier manual.

I return and thanks I’ll pop something in the Heart Foundation donation box in the next week.

It’s hard to believe the DC300 is as vintage – probably more so – than the Ekco AD65 was back in 1967 when the DC300 was first introduced :)

Terry

Re: The Thanks Thread
 

Big thanks to John M0GLN for machining a brass piece for me for a tool that I am making - works perfectly and is REALLY appreciated. Top man...

Cheers to mole42uk for the high-voltage connectors which arrived here today (in a rather snazzy shiny red Jiffy-bag!).

They look just the thing for my linear-amp PSU interconnects.
