Good motors as usual from Lima ever reliable quality product

Mike, fab video, very informative. Could you tell me the make and model numbers of the coaches at 2:50 please?

Not a bad place now.

Youre great work on this video makes me sad. Those were the days. Still have two of my radios the Grundig 800 and Panasonic 2800. Great job.

The Zurich building hasn't gone; it's been extended recently, taking up a small part of Victoria Park, and converted into yet more student digs.

I got one of these last week for £15. It and had the BATT error flashing despite changing it. Found a solution was to bridge the pink wire from the front panel to earth and fixed it. I need to also fix the back light now but its a great scanner.

Superb, Mike. Im in tears.

I've restored a realistic 2021 & 2022 Scanners to working order. Had to replace the EL-Tape for the LCD backlight. Funny that one of the first places to find replacements was from a business in the UK!

Remember to L/OUT all the 000.0000 channels or you'll be scanning a lot of nothing :) And the electroluminecent panels can be bought for cheap on Amazon and be replaced. Maybe change color?.

Hi Mike, they flew over here last week, on there way to Swansea. All the best. Carl.

Well done Mike and thanks for posting

Will be going to see them at Fairford.........IF the rain stays away.........

About the same year I got my first shortwave radio a modest Realistic DX someting. Great compilation by the way. Well done.

@Electronics Visions 1960s I was walking along a Arkansas Road where there was High Tension Power Lines on then & The Electricity Spoke to me, to wit: They were captured and forced to Run Back & Forward by Humans. They showed me On Power Poles Yellow Creatures Running Back & Again (Same as Saw Tooth in Oscillator) further more From the Ground in front of me an the Road Electric Ground ""Demons"" popped from the Ground to impress me of the Truth, these were the Earth Ground. Not a Dream, I was Alive, 15 Years old, in Benton, Arkansas, when I often had visions and such.

IT SOUNDS familiar, but I can't put my finger on it!

It’s A Mouse

Little known fact, Havant got its name as it haven't got a decent pub, haven't got a decent restaurant, haven't got a decent leisure centre...

Used to drink in the Star in the 70's, it was wild back then! The toilets were referred to as the 'office' where dodgy transactions would take place. Anton Hartfree, Dave Neville, Diggs Andrew Holcroft, Frank Stokes, Dave Nugent...

not made by Tandy .. LOL

i have also fixed this by updating computer with Dell Command Tool. It has worked a few few but not every time

Street's was a proper hardware shop, scent of paraffin as you entered. Staff wearing brown linen shop coats. Myriad fixtures and fittings in those dark hardboard-faced drawers. Upstairs was all gardening stuff. What a loss.

Beign a kid in the 80s, the tail end years of the Cold War, Reagan, everything was just a time i could never describe to my ex step kids. Great times in my life.

Great memories, spent loads of happy days in haven't park during the 70s and early 80s, thanks

Lovely collection of Terriers and some very interesting coaching stock.

Thank you Mike for sharing.

It's been happening here as well, but I have NOT been able to see a THING! Just dark skies!

Glad your friend messaged you before you’d gone to bed and that you were able to get these marvellous shots and have the experience Mike.😉

You lucky boy Mike

Bit WET...

Judged by the comments, I seem to be one of the oldest here? I remember listening to european and global stations, SW-MW-LW, during day and night time, in the 60s - this was when the Beatles appeared. Agreed, it was a great time, something the present generations will find hard to appreciate...

Installed a 120 foot wire antenna in the attic. Great reception yes, but strong stations like VOA and Radio Canada, overwhelmed whatever mb they were broadcasting on. And if i used poorly shielded guitar cords in would hear both stations thru a bass guitar amp.

Brilliant

Great job👍

Hi Mike. I know I am seven years late but where can I get one of those remagnitizers?

Beautiful - thank you for sharing! 👍 Quite agree the area is rapidly being destroyed through over-development - parts of it I no longer recognise.😢

DON'T go skylarking now!

Sussex is a beautiful county, and you have captured it perfectly. I love the first comment too.

Beautiful Mike. "Oh to be in England now that April is there".

I think Southern do still have a few of these around - I often see them at Havant station when travelling down from London to visit the family. No mistaking their loud compressor sound

nice.

Thanks, I’d love to ride these trams and see the beautiful views.

Back here looking at the bare board. I think I may need to build something similar soon for testing. I can build kits but without a decent obstacle course I will never really know how well they perform. I see that originally the board folded and that you have used a special hinge. How stable was this if it was to be folded and unfolded often? Also how deep is the side fascia? I see it extends above the track level to protect it but it also is surprisingly deep. I assume its covering a sub frame of some sort. Sorry for the barrage of questions...

A great video guide but I feel that you should seek help for the Monday drinking/pub obsession - you're on a slippery slope.

A really excellent video. A history of Southern Electric and, yes, I did watch to the very end. Superbly filmed as always. I've watched this several times and will come back to it again. Lovely models including your dad's 2BILs.

I miss these stations and the wide variety of SW broadcasts that enriched my life. Shortwave gave me the opportunity to understand and respect a wide range of political opinions...and of course to DX the tropical bands. It cost Canadians 38 cents a year for Radio Canada international...but they shut it down regardless. As a Canadian it broke my heart.

I agree with you that a quid each sounds pretty expensive. Although I suppose that using 2 briquettes means 2 quid for 8 hours of heat, which doesn't seem terrible. And I guess the price drops the more you buy. Your video certainly got me thinking about giving night briquettes a go in my my own stove, so thanks for that.

Looks good to me Mike The rocking movement is in the exact right place

Awful music!
