Thanks to andrewferguson for the neat little Pye tuner that arrived safely yesterday, very well cushioned in its box- if only all suppliers paid similar attention to packaging. A "proper" tuner with sturdy air gang variable and well put together, I haven't traced the DC powering arrangement through yet but three IF filters and a 3SK73 RF stage suggest good VHF/FM capability and LW adds a bit of casual DX interest plus "storm approaching" heads-up!
