Default Re: Whatever's this? Strange 'radio aerial'?

Synchrodyne, many thanks - spot on. Have you any idea of the date of the catalogue?

Aerialite were masters of marketing hype when it came to claiming wondrous performance from very basic products, often dressed up as something special. We have a box of Aerialite copper aerial wire which claims to receive better and with less interference than any other wire.

The "oxygen-free copper cable" myth clearly isn't a new phenomenon!

Many thanks again for everyone's help.

Phil
