Hi.
Nice repair and pleased you are happy with the results.
The link to the BVWS article did get me thinking. I still stand by my thoughts and others that the German set is insensitive, no sets of this design could ever be said that they were no matter what country and by who designed them. I felt it had a distinctly German bias for an article published in a British magazine. No I'm not being biased either, so think about this, over 2000 were brought to task about listening to foreign broadcasts, come now, it's possible to do this with a crystal set, decent aerial or a tunable frame aerial. Also who says those people had just the people's sets?? To my mind the article has as many myths as the ones they are trying to discount.
