Many thanks to Mike Phelan for his expert repair of a clock wheel. The part itself isn't electric but I think he deserves thanks as he has done a great job and even refused payment for the postage.

A big thank you to Anthony for one of the pair of HP 540B transfer oscillators that were offered & for print outs of the relevant manuals, they should be a great help for getting it going again.

Also thank you to Rileyman for a pair of E1T valves & sockets, probably the closest I'll get to owning an original counter that uses them.

I second DMcMahon - chriswood1900's objects arrived impeccably packaged and perfectly safely, despite the delivery man's grumbling about their weight. I know how long packaging like that takes, and am suitably grateful! I hope the MCR21 project continues apace in the new year.

Hi!

My grateful thanks to the following Members:–

"AC/HL" Bill for the Doric Mk 1 Manual donation, I've donated the postage equivalent of this to the RNIB as I'm still awaiting another eye procedure;

"Electrical" Stan for the Doric Mk 3 Scans;

"MALC SCOTT" Malcolm for the loan (to be returned when scanned!) of Doric Mk3/4 Workshop Manuals:–

. . .to assist me with my quest in writing a brand new Dynamco Dual TB 7202 Manual!

I asked for help with these as Dynamco wrote their manuals in a very similar format and drawing style to Doric and my copies got destroyed in a lockup fire 7 years ago!

Thanks Gents!
