Just to say Many Thanks to Bill, AC/HL, for going out of his way to sort me out with a sprung terminal like this https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...d.php?t=180988 to replace the broken one on my Kingshill supply. I can now use the supply as it should be used !

Cheers,

GJ

Yet another big thank you to Steve.Seven for the lovely pre war HMV 480 radio .
Ive decided not to do any restoration on the cabinet as it looks wonderful as it is and the innards have already been done.

Glad you like Richard,

If space was not an issue I would have kept it, electrically it's had a new smoothing cap and all the critical wax capacitors replaced so should be fine.
It was in a very sorry state when I received it so good that it's been rescued and gone to a good home.
Regards,
Steve.
