['LIVEWIRE?']

With rrespect, Kevin, I think you are wrong. The Cyldon tuners were made my Sydney Bird, certainly, but it was always my understanding that the radios were manufactured by Smiths in Cricklewood, whichever of the two brand names they carried. Admittedly I cannot provide documentary evidence to back up my statement, other than the fact that Motorola Radios bore labels bearing the name World Radio Ltd. In the Mid 1970s Motorla set up their own UK factory at Stotfold, Herts., where the 112,114, 121 & 122, amongst others were made. Bird later made car radios & cassette players sold under their own name, and also as Lucas Audio, but that's another story.
