Thanks for that John. I have never seen one of these sets in the flesh so was curious as to the number of positions on the tuner knob. Amazing how they made it so stable for the technology of the day. Most of the sets of that vintage sold in the Midlands at that time with turret tuners with individual 'biscuits', almost always had coils fitted for London-1&9 as well as 4&8. If the set was to be moved to any other part of the country the appropriate coils would have to be fitted at the new location.
