I need to replace a few TRV bodies. I'd like to go for Drayton or Pegler, but I'm having trouble finding straight ones. I can find no-name valves in eBay or Amazon, but I'd rather not risk leaks. Any suggestions gratefully received.

I'm sorry, but that pdf really is a case of too long, didn't read! But I do remember trying to explain that sitting the antenna in the roof of the school would be safe. But hey ho, nobody believes in science these days...

Lisle Street in Soho was the magical place full of Aladdin's caves of electronic components when I was a kid. My dad would sometimes take me there.

Yes. Samson's Electronics, although you might be thinking of Ralfe Electronics next door, who sold second hand test equipment. Much more interesting stuff.
