I remember visiting Lisle Street in Soho with my father in the late 50’s and early 60’s when it had many surplus shops. They were like Aladdin’s caves, especially for hams. He to was a radio ham from pre-war, G2CKW, and was in the RAF servicing electronic equipment joining Decca Radar after the war. He had a National HRO Senior receiver presumably bought war surplus. Anybody know where these receivers were used?
Visited Lisle Street at new year for the first time since then. Sometimes it’s best not to go back!
