Good news about the tyre Steve .

The photos didn't turn out too bad in the end fortunately - lighting was pretty tricky on Saturday.

That's your lot. I really enjoyed the weekend - it was great to catch up and talk valves with fellow like-minded oddballs. Thanks for organising again Steve, roll on the next one. .

Down the bottom of the room and Dave's modded 6EM7 amp with anode choke on the first stage and grid chokes, with his Saburos and Thomas' 401 http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/67.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/68.jpg...

I missed the later fun on the Saturday night, and the early stuff on Sunday, which was a more chilled and shorter day. Starting with Phil's GM70 and his speakers. A close-up of his computer monitors. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/58.jpg Then Phil connected ...

Struggling with a few of these, but I think this is Chris' guitar and Bizzie's amps? http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/49.jpg Neal's 2A3PP http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/50.jpg Back to the bottom of the room again for a...

Mr I waxing lyrical about how good Tannoys are, and how good his 2A3PP isn't. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/39.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/40.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20...

That's all for now folks. Time for bed, more tomorrow night.

Our organiser Steve S introducing his latest incarnation of his H baffles. I can't do them justice so will let Steve descibe them. Output valves are 1930s PX25s. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/29.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%201...

Colin introduces his and Andrew's combined system, whilst Andrew DJs http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/20.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/21.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%20201...

Next up Steve the Shadow doing his best Harry Hill impression. Steve was at pains to point out that it wasn't his 60th birthday. BTW, I like valves that glow. A lot. I like photos of valves that glow too. A lot. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/09.jpg http://i...

Alrighty, for Dave, Ed and anyone else interested here are some photos. Well, quite a lot actually. Hurrah for Photobucket's bandwidth :wink: http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015%20May%202010/01.jpg Chris was up first http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/simon2a3/Owston%2015...

Pictures!!! The colonies demand pictures :) dave Bear with me - the colonies shall have photos! It always takes me a few days to sort them out. Or perhaps more accurately find the time earning a bit of credit back! There were one or two others taking photos too so they may be quicker of the mark th...

Bloody noisy here!

Been a bit quiet of late chaps - life too busy and all that. I'm going to have to pass on the Friday night sess sadly. It seems just wrong, but got to see a man about a dog. I'm sure you won't miss me, but my heart will be with you lot in the bar talking shite :). Especially with Dave. And Will and ...

Being bifilar the only insulation between the primary and secondary is the enamel on the wire, hence the 300v max between the two windings. Numpty question alert! So if I've got this right in the case of a common cathode secondary stage say, the 300V max voltage difference is between the anode of t...
