That's just gotta stay.

I couldn't delete the picture of a motherboard with a valve on it.

Zeity, on a slightly related note. I am very sad because I have moved into a building with very poor am reception, and I am unable to listen to the worldservice.

Is an external am antenna the only solution?

It was The Newnes Short Wave Manual, by F. J. Camm (brother of the more famous Sidney wot designed the 'Awker 'Urricane).
