I had a good day and thank all of the BVWS staff for their efforts in making the day work well despite the poor lighting conditions in the hall. Nice meeting up and chatting to people.

Came away with a watch calibrator test rig with CRT in it. looks like it could be useful for my mechanical clocks. Also came away with various peculiar test equipment from the auction which looks fun to restore. I also got the strange twin beam CRT in the auction.

Apart from some caps off the BVWS stall and some 200 watt resistors I didn't get much else for a change.

Glad the little Marconi monitor went to a good home.
