Hi all. Inherited this radio from my Gran. Please see attached. Absolutely love it and reminder of her. Really want to restore... Is there a service for this? Thank you. Jamie.

Thanks to those that responded to this post back in June. I ran with Chris - Unitelex. Absolutely delighted that I did. The job done on my radio has exceeded any expectations. Bought back to life with all the care in the world with some classy upgrades. Customer service was excellent and I was continually bought up to speed with progress. Thank you again Chris. Happy to provide a reference for you in the future if required.
