Bush DAC 90a
This is the Bush DAC 90a radio i acquired yesterday, I've decided to sell it on because I'm not really a vintage radio collector as you know, I'm into reel to reel tape decks, hi-fi units, record players, cassette decks, 8 track cartridge tape players and the like.
This unit is in its original state, no cracks in the bakelite case, all original inside and appears never to have been tampered with. Its a 1951 unit all valve and sporting the rarer much sort after ivory case, LW and MW only, no aerial required due to the unit having an internal ring aerial meaning the whole radio is effectively the aerial .
If anyone is interested in it please drop me a line.

Tape cleaning.
Question: should we clean the actual audio tape, watch the video and make up your own mind.
Akai X-1800SD
A little bit of the Big Band Sound of Syd Lawrence and his Orchestra on this Sunday morning played on my Akai X-1800 SD reel to reel and 8 track deck
Hitachi Ghettoblaster.
The Hitachi Ghettoblaster is now fully operational once again, the cassette deck with the tape inserted did not work at all even though all fuses are intact but now its fantastic, the right hand deck only played intermittently and 2 of the main piano keys kept flirting off when in use but now fully working.
The unit has been fully cleaned, serviced, new belts x 3 and 4 new fuses.
It is a very powerful unit total of 60 watts music power, battery/mains operated, 3D and Surround sound.
When its be cleaned externally i will post some pictures and a full video.
It will go for sale at around £80.00 if anyone is interested just drop me a personal message.
