Re: PYE radio id please.
These were designed to always be the lowest price radio in the then Pye range.
I suggested that they used an UCL82 for the AF stages but, surprisngly, they did not?! It would have saved one valve (and its holder) and it would have run cooler....

Re: PYE radio id please.
Maybe the idea of mixing B8A and B9A bases was not liked. There never was a UCL4* AFAIK
