Finds in Norfolk - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I have just returned from a short holiday in coastal Norfolk and met a character who still had a blacksmith's workshop. There were 3 dusty radios and a 1950s HMV TV ( a big wooden job) which he wouldn't let me photograph.The radios were Pye Fenman 1 ,a big Ultra with bar down the front middle(1940s he reckoned) and an Ekco. I will try to track these sets down .
He said 'they all worked last time they were used' but that could have been many years ago.
We didn't discuss money - 'How much you got then'- and too big for me but someone might be interested . I have an address.
