Thank feck for that.
His led lights up.
Unfortunately it lights up when he wants it not to light up & Vice Versa.
Ho hum.
This electronics thing is such a problem.

Of course, it would be a simple thing to connect the damn thing to the 5V rail instead of 0V.
Then it would light up when he wants it to light up.
However, I think I'll quit whilst I'm ahead.Comment

Bored.
Now.
Just started whistling the theme to "The Muppets".
It appeared to be totally spontaneous.Comment

I've failed to inform (correction: "bore") the assembled congregation with my attempts to repair a 1956 Philips 543A wireless set.
Along with much Philips stuff, it's rather unusual.
Bakelite case.
A ferrite rod aerial you can rotate using a knob concentric with the tuning control.
4 wavebands: Long (for the Home Service), Medium (for whatever you find on MW these days), Short (to listen to Radio Moscow), and FM (to listen to anything that's broadcast between 88 and 100MHz.
It's also got piano key selection of the waveband.
I've never seen a more complex collection of bits of string operating stuff.
The electronic part is reasonably easy to deal with; the strings look like they'll be a nightmare.
And I do this for fun?Comment
