Default Alexandra Palace Television Society

Is there anyone on this forum who is fairly high-up or can contact the high-ups in the Alexandra Palace Television Society?

I did a little research for Wikipedia a while back and someone at APTS might be able to help me complete the research.

Thank you.

On a quest for the BBC suppressor film (since found) I tried contacting this organization to no avail, seems to be a dead end, they certainly don't answer email messages.

I did on article on Helen McKay, the first person to sing on the BBC's test high definition broadcast for RadiOlympia in August 1936, for Wikipedia, as she didn't have an entry, unlike Adele Dixon.

I am looking for publicly available photographs of Ms McKay for her Wikipedia entry.

The web site is a place holder with the statement that a new site will be launching soon, no idea how long that page has been online.

the site http://405-line.tv

has a email address, basically as far as I know they people involved are part of the apts

I know one of the members and will be seeing him in a couple of weeks. I would rather not name drop or post phone numbers until I have spoken to him.

Heritage Television Ltd. (405-line.tv) is not a part of the APTS, but simply enjoy a good relationship with them.
