Re: Gamages Radio
Many radios of this type were made by small manufacturers in the late 40s, often set up by engineers who'd learned their trade in radio and radar during the war. They often used whatever components were available cheaply on the surplus market, and the odd mixture of octal and B8B Loctal valves is typical. My guess would be that Gamages signed an agreement with some man-in-a-shed operation in Croydon or wherever to make these radios for them. The cabinets may have come from an additional furniture manufacturer.
The circuit is likely to be a standard 4 valve L/M/S superhet plus a rectifier.
