The Thanks Thread - Page 36 - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Thanks to Station X for allowing me to be the next custodian of his very carefully packed ADI-AT600 amateur radio handheld.

I'll hopefully be taking it with me into some high-up locations shortly, weather allowing.

A big thank you to Rich (slidertogrid) for the push button for my Ekco A410 radio. Thanks to him the Ekco is now a viable restore prospect.

I had thought the chances of obtaining this button was about zero, but no.

I just off now to the garden centre for some rocking horse manure.

Thanks to all the forum members who help me keep my sets going with fantastic service tips and tricks. And big thanks to Lloyd for the Brc 1500 service manual. Such an excellent forum Paul and the mods provide full of genuine people and valuable information

Sincere thanks to the following forum members who generously donated Seno and Alfac rub-down PCB transfers to me, which are no longer produced:

Neil - 'Newlite'
Bryan - 'Bryan M'
Howard - 'Omegaman'

I've made an appropriate donation to the local Hospice charity.

Many thanks to Mike (Cobaltblue) for the generous gift of a two pin plug I was looking for, it's just the job. Once again this marvellous forum has come up trumps.

Reelman · 22nd Jul 2017, 10:57 am

Many thanks again to Captainpugwash for his continuing generosity in helping me with an 8 track collection and the means to play it.
Thank you David, much appreciated.
Peter.

Thanks to AC/HL for sending me the 2-part Philips N4450 service manual. It will be very useful in repairing that wonderful tape recorder.

A big thank you to Mike Phelan for the Beovision 7700.

It was a pleasure to meet you.

I just found this thread, I don't know how I missed it. I have quite a few thank yous built up! I want to thank Mike(cobalt blue) for the McMichael knobs, a perfect match and looking great. Mick(vinrads) very kindly sent me a variable capacitor for my radio build, thank you. Thanks to Richard(electronicskip) for the centrecom, it may be handy one day but for now at least it's safe from the bin! I also want to thank Trevor (trifocaltrev) for sending me a lot of documentation and circuit diagrams for my Loewe radio, very useful. A final thanks goes to everyone who has helped me out with my radio build so far and with my restoration projects, without this forum I wouldn't have known where to start. Also a thanks to Paul Stenning for creating this great forum in the first place! Thanks once again all.

Nice one Peter!
