I can't remember the name of the shop itself, but it was in George Street behind Gloucester Green bus station by the cinema in Oxford.
Used to go in most weeks as I worked just up the way from it but it was basically an Army surplus shop selling ex Army radio sets, crystals, cables, anything army related components ex MOD and tons of other stuff.
Bought quite a few Army radio sets from it costing me about £5 each as I recall ,but this was in the late 70's early 80's .
Maybe someone can put a name to the place?
