Some will know that I also frequent other forums.
Very pleasing to be elevated to the ranks as Technical Assistant so soon, hope that I can live up to the title. Formal training as electronic tech, 49 years ago!
My lifestyle is a little unusual, missing from the UK for 4 months a year and living on a boat on the UK canals for the rest.
I do have a workshop on the farm in Middlewich where we moor, restoring mainly valve radios , no room for TVs.
Looking forward to some lively debate on the forum.

I live on a boat too. It's not in the canal but on hard-standing so I can do more work on it. I have another GRP boat also on hard standing and this has a big HMV fifties radio stored in it.
I started out with an interest in boat wiring and electrics and then gradually developed the interest in vintage radio as well.
By the way, my boat has one of those noisy and smoky Lister SR's which I like a lot as it's also vintage early seventies.
