Cossor Melody Maker 234 - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hello,

I'm just about to commence restoration on a Cossor Melody Maker 234 with vertical screened cans. It's the battery version. Does anyone have any service or circuit material scanned in.

Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin

As AC/HL says plenty of info here on these sets.

They are pretty simple sets, worth checking the continuity of the AF coupling transformer as they can open circuit.

Cheers

I have some poor photo copies of the assembly instructions. They scan to large files but the forum seems to accept them with some compression. I could send you scans direct if you like.

Fred Ward G2CVV used to assemble these to sell in his uncle's shop.

Thanks all for the useful responses.

Trevor could I trouble you for those scanned images.

Thanks awfully.
