Blue spot mystery set
Hi all,
Been asked to restore this set for a friend who got said set at a flea market; It is an AC mains 4 valve + rectifier set of some quality. I can find no model number on it anywhere. Set looks quite tidy apart from one valve that is shedding it's metalised overcoat as though it is Summer Anyone seen or know this set, or better still have any circuit details I could have a copy of? Thanks, Paul. |
