Product Description

Review
'at last, here is a densely-packed book of advice, spiced with humour, reminiscences, and informed opinions - but only when and where they treally help', Bill Jarvis, MA, CPhys, MInstP.

Product Description
This book is not only an essential read for every professional working with antique radio and gramophone equipment, but also dealers, collectors and valve technology enthusiasts the world over.

The emphasis is firmly on the practicalities of repairing and restoring, so technical content is kept to a minimum, and always explained in a way that can be followed by readers with no background in electronics. Those who have a good grounding in electronics, but wish to learn more about the practical aspects, will benefit from the emphasis given to hands-on repair work, covering mechanical as well as electrical aspects of servicing. Repair techniques are also illustrated throughout.

This book is an expanded and updated version of Chas Miller's classic Practical Handbook of Valve Radio Repair. Full coverage of valve amplifiers will add to its appeal to all audio enthusiasts who appreciate the sound quality of valve equipment.

A practical manual for collectors, owners, dealers and service engineers
Essential information for all radio and audio enthusiasts
Valve technology is a hot topic

4.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly Well Presented, 21 Aug 2001
By A. Reynolds "adrian_j_r" (Mexico) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
So why only 4 stars? My only complaint is that the diagnostic advice is not as comprehensive as I expected. Even so, this book provides a wealth of practical advice which is suitable for beginners and the more experienced. Well done, sir!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 1 Sep 2000
By A Customer
At last a 'how to repair radio' book that caters for most levels of competence, and has all the relevant data to hand. I wish I had had this book years ago - it would have saved some worthy radios from the scrapheap. I can't praise this book highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book does what it says on the cover!, 13 Jan 2002
I have rarely read a book with so much information per £cost. All perfectly understandable for people with no previous experience, but still lots for those with a good knowledge of valves. If you are wondering which book to buy on this subject, you have my assurance that this book "Does what says on the cover"!
