I'm very grateful to Richard [trhO1uk] for the books he offered. They've been on a longer journey than anticipated but Richard has been very generous in the true spirit of the Forum, possibly it's main attraction in my view and I try to follow it myself.

Many thanks to Bill (AC/HL) for his kindness in sending me an HP frequency counter - very well packed, too

Looks like an SN7446AN BCD-7-segment decoder/driver IC will be needed - so now it's over the 'FS/W' section ...

Best wishes
Guy

Fairly sure the microphone is a Grundig GMC3 condenser microphone minus its mounting base.
