My sincere thanks to astro63 for supplying me with a replacement Dansette turntable platter. And free of charge. Very generous.

Thanks to agardiner for offering an Insulation Tester on the forum which arrived safely today.

DMcMahon · 28th Jan 2024, 4:47 pm

A very belated thankyou to Peter (Electronpusher0) for the Mk2 Minimod PCB that safely arrived a couple of weeks back.

A big thank you to Anthony for the gift of an engineers vice & kudos for packaging it and shipping it over to me, it's much appreciated. In these hard times it's nice to know that the fire of altruism & camaraderie still burns.

Andy.

A big thank you to Richard (mole42uk) for sending me a couple of project radios, it’s much appreciated.
Thanks

I just want to thank Ed Dinning for the latest DAC90A transformer rewind. He charges a very reasonable rate and without people like Ed providing such a valuable service, many more radios would be consigned to the dustbin!

Thanks to EmleyTim for sending me a Bush VHF80 entirely FoC. What incredible generosity.

electronicskip · 31st Jan 2024, 3:14 pm

Big thank you to Lightning (Martin) for the Glider transceiver .

knobtwiddler · 31st Jan 2024, 6:24 pm

Another thank you to Whiskas, this time for the inductors!

Thanks to Jeremy MORVB for sorting a large batch of CRTs & helping me pack them into boxes, now added to my collections of CRT's (125) and oscilloscopes (177), I may need to move soon!

AnalogueMan · 7th Feb 2024, 11:27 am

Thanks to David G4EBT for kindly offering the 49er PCB and then sending it off completely FOC rather than just chucking it away which would have been so much easier for him to do. This is what makes this forum a great place to be and is much appreciated

Thanks to all recent purchasers of my items (too many to name!). All items are now posted and will be with you soon.

These sales collectively directly supported the acquisition of a very rare item, it's much appreciated, many thanks.

Bazz4CQJ · 8th Feb 2024, 4:23 pm

Thanks to you Scott for your service, and it's a pleasure to support your project.

. . .My grateful thanks to 'Marconi_MPT4" Richard Woods for his help in scanning a Hatfield HBC1000/1000 Psophometer Manual for me – he has provided me with a beautiful clear scan, altho' it is missing two sets of board drawings, I hope to either be able to obtain another copy with them, or possibly get hold of the boards themselves that the missing diagrams would have covered!

. . .As it is I know now what an "A4/1000" board is and if my unit hasn't got one, there's enough information to design and make one!

Thanks to Scott (ScottBouch) for the wirewound ceramic resistors that have just safely arrived.

A massive thanks to agardiner for the valve tester. It's in perfect condition and I've tested a Nuvistor that I had to hand already with it.

MeerKat · 10th Feb 2024, 12:08 pm

Many thanks to ScottBouch for the board, hope you soon have enough for that rare item!

Mikey66 · 11th Feb 2024, 6:55 pm

knobtwiddler · 13th Feb 2024, 6:38 pm
