Links

On this page are links to some valve-equipment-related websites that I think are useful or interesting. If you have a question about a specific piece of equipment, manufacturer or whatever, don’t forget that Google Is Your Friend. Someone, somewhere has probably posted the information you need...

N.B. I have no connection with any of these sites, so can’t take any responsibility for their content.

Sites with information about (and examples of) valve equipment restoration

Tony Thompson’s site: www.vintageradioworld.co.uk

Paul Stenning’s site: http://www.vintage-radio.com

Martin Francis’s Vintage Wireless Database: www.classaxe.com/wireless/data/

Each of these sites contains a long list of further links, so in an ideal world you could avoid useful work indefinitely!
