I'm only a couple of miles from you and so far have not had any success with Caroline. I have tried various sets that would have received the station very well in the 60's including a Beolit 611 classy transistor portable. Obviously doing something wrong. What sort of aerial do I need for e.g. a KB 5valve superhet or a Bush AC11?
