Hi Harry,
I have one, but haven't done any work on it yet. I can send you the circuit diagram if it will help.
Mine has the output transformer and one of the aerial terminals missing. The valves all have O/C heaters and the battery wiring has crumbled. Otherwise it's more or less OK I think (from memory, or what's left of it!)
