BVWS North West of England swap meet
Well folks it is again that time of year again, and time has flown.
arrangements are well in hand for the 11th April 2010 BVWS North West of England Swap Meet to be held once again at Lowton Civic Hall, close to the A580 between Warrington and Leigh, Lancs. Doors open at 10am, non BVWS members are welcome as there is the opportunity to join on the day, well worth doing! Directions for those who have never attended before are here http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&sourc...1e998208e8ca69 Many tables have already been booked so once again it should be a good event, with light refreshments and an onsite radio enginner to assist and advise should you need it. Hopefully there will also be a bring and buy stall and a very good display of 405 line working TV's. so see you all there. cheers Mark |

Hi Cockshad,
You could always join the BVWS on the day if you enjoy the event. Then you could also enjoy the Bulletins and all the other goodies. The usual BVWS Table with all of the Capacitors etc will be there and we will also be bringing a table load of stuff to dispose of as usual. The 405 Line TV display will be running and this time should have a rather special Pre-war television running. Any one got a 240 Line source?????? Mike... |

That would be fantastic if it could be got there.
Failing all else, how feasible would it be to post it to someone who is going? |

Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet

Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet
Hi all, just been to Lowton, great stuff, enjoyed it. Nice people, thanks for all your help. See you there again in October hopefully.

Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet
Yes, a great event and plenty of folk there, despite all the sunshine!

Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet
Thanks to all for organising a top event. :). Good collection of stuff but finances tight so saving my money for NVCF and next Harpenden.
Saw some nice PSU's , labpacks and a nice Leader Sig Gen. Some nice old valve rigs too. Cheers to all Jim |
Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet
Yes, as usual an enjoyable visit. Thanks due to Mark, his family and all other helpers. I took my wife - first time she's been to one of these affairs - she was very impressed, perhaps by the number of good looking older men.:laugh1: (She didn't spot the secret handshakes though! :thumbsup:).
I managed, due to the company I was keeping, not to buy much. Got a can of DeoxIT from the BVWS table (that had better be b:censored:y good Mike!). Very pleasant to see fellow enthusiasts again, looking forward the next one. Regards to all, |
Re: BVWS North West of England swap meet
Hi Mike et al. Due to family illness, I am currently anchored in the south east so couldn't turn up with my brother, aka "the driver", as usual [and I'm a a badge pioneer as well]. Most unfortunate as this is a great venue. Was a 240 line picture achieved I wonder? How did Steve's "bodge it" repair desk get on? Dave W
