The prospective purchaser can come and view and collect or she can deliver locally as far as say Bristol for the cost of the fuel.

The Eddystone go-to spares guy, Ian Nutt, M0ECQ, is selling some old parts which might appeal to restorers of vintage Eddystones. They are not guaranteed and the All Wave Choke part No982 (13-2000 metres) is slightly damaged internally but could probably be restored.
The 500-100Kc/s converter is apparently unused and comes in its original box. Ian would like them all to go to good homes!
