Many thanks to 'Fixitnow' for the 2 boxes of typewriter and adding machine service manuals. They are of great interest to me.

Thanks due to Ed Dinning for the Ekco A160 chassis, received all good today, dial glass and grille have survived and there's even 4 of the valves in place so not far off working in the big scheme of things. As described, unrestored down to the power cord and spider webs

Cheers,

Thanks to Nigel, (Vinylspinner) for going well out of his way to deliver the Ron Smith FM aerial. Was good to catch up and have a yarn, hope you made it back ok.

Andy.

More thanks due from me, firstly to Joe (The Pillenwerfer) for the booklets. Already come in useful for confirming valve substitutes & doubtless will again. Which brings me on nicely to thanking both Jerry (CathodeRay57) for digging up a UL46 from his stash, & also David (captainpugwash) for finding me a potentially good UL41.

Thank you all very much. Will hopefully end up making a "success story" of the A160 resurrection

Many thanks to llama (Graham) for the DIN plugs just received.
Very pleased as they are much better quality than the ones I occasionally see nowadays.
Would not even let me pay for postage, another great example of forum membership behaviour.
Cheers!
Peter
