Hi.



Thanks for the suggestions. I had a reply from Just Radios, no joy.



I'll keep looking around. My main concern is that it went through a previous repair attempt and even the filament connections are wrong. Some resistors look salvaged from another set (R15 for example) and the resistance doesn't match B2806's schematic.

I think I can manage if the only thing that changes between the sets is the tuning part, but will need to confirm that before stripping the B806.
