Thanks, AC/HL (Bill) for the BVWS Capacitors page. I couldn't find it on the BVWS Website, but will contact Mike Barker the next time I need those Screwmount capacitors. Because the thread in 'Sets, Parts & Service Info. wanted' has been closed, I wasn't able to reply directly earlier this morning.

Thanks to Paul (wd40addict) for his Audacity plug-in that generates a Wow & Flutter test signal. It has proved very useful for verifying the operation of a Wow & Flutter meter I bought recently.

My thanks to Humber888 for the HP 1740A oscilloscope, and to WaveyDipole for helping transport it to me - I only hope I can repay the favour one day.

I'm hopeful that this unit contains the last part needed to complete a restoration project that's been on the back-burner for the last few years - if so, I'll write it up on the forum in due course. But in the meantime, thanks again to both

Hi!

My thanks to Member Mikey405 for the PE Magazines, to Member Jacek for delivering 'em to me and Member John Caswell for the two HP180 Oscoilloscopes that I'm looking forward to restoring!

Just to Say a huge thank you to Tom I for his very kind gift of a sonotone cartridge plus new stylus and P&P which he refuses to accept any payment for.

In the near future, I hope to follow Toms lead and pass on to forum members, stuff that I no longer need, which may be of some use to other members.

If only our world leaders could reflect Toms mind-set and actions, wouldn't that be fantastic.

Many thanks once again Tom.

All my very best and kindest regards,

Ted

Thanks to 'mole42uk' for sending the bridge for my Sectic Bijou clock movement. It fits perfectly, and will save me many hours on the mill

Many thanks to all the forum members who helped me out with some ancient SD cards - all but one of these cards have the byte addressability I was looking for.

Thanks to David (factory) for his gift of some audio equipment and for being so understanding and hanging on to it for me until I could recently get a friend to collect. Much appreciated.
