You know things are bad when you can rightly be criticised for taste and aesthetics by someone from Cheshire.
Feck. I hope this is very temporary.
Got lost on the A560 did we?
Done a 5 mile cycle ride in Wales which is first time in about 20 years .rather enjoyed it. Staying on very smelly and noisy farm for few days
Are you boasting or complaining?
Sorting out the bias on a Michaelson and Austin TVA-1. A pain. The screw-adjusters are hidden inside the amp and only accessible from underneath. Hence the 3" x 3" prop. The thing weighs 38kg.
(Sorry for the grainy phone pic. It’s gloomy in my living room.)

AKA Stab City (or so my Irish colleague tells me)
You can see the bias is miles out just by looking at it!
Has it caught fire yet?
It’s a TVA not an NVA
No. I have had it delivering 75W/ch continuous sine though, which did warm the dummy load resistor up pretty impressively. I think this is the biggest iron I’ve seen on a vintage (1978) hifi amp (I have got a 300W mono PA amp which came from Sizewell A nuclear power station and the trannies on that are bigger, but hifi it ain’t).

They were notoriously flammable.
Sifting through feedback from yesterday’s presentation.
I. Am. Loved.
Was there free beer ?
VB
Not complaining,just makes a nice change to hear quad bikes attending to noisy sheep and watching a big bull from the window. Refreshing change from police sirens
I did think about buying their affection but the Drug & Alcohol policy scuppered my plan. I had to rely on my natural charm and wit.
