Re: Woodsons of Aberdeen SR124
Fascinating!
It's got a 3-gang tuning-capacitor, which suggests it's got a RF-amplifier stage and so should work rather well on the amateur 160/80-Metre bands.
I also note a bunch of metal-sleeved capacitors with rubber-bungs on their leadouts. These are "sheep in wolves clothing" - inside the shiny metal case is a nasty 'waxy' paper-capacitor which __will__ be horribly leaky after half a century.
If it says Metalpack or Metalmite on the outside, it really needs replacing with extreme urgency!
