Fernando Maestre's Radio Museum
Keep them glowing!
This is the Radio Museum I'm helping to set up. We are getting lots of tube equipment and (hopefully!) will restore them to their original operating condition. So this is going to be a 'live' Museum, with all the equipment in good condition and carefully handled!.
The Museum has about 150 SWL tube sets (60% or so european), from approximately 1900 to 1975, and some Communication Receivers (as Moore describes them!). Below is a list of the communication equipment we have now and the ones are coming!.
