There have been some enquiries without any 'Contact details', which has left us unable to reply & do business with you! If you have not received a reply to an enquiry, please add your contact details (at the bottom of the web page) to the book selection, then 'Order' or 'Enquire' again.

A Happy New Year to all our customers.


Thank you all for your custom over the past year.

Now that the turkey, goose or other festive food have been digested, there is no excuse for not browsing through our latest catalogue.

NEW

Following a further recent acquisition, we now have some precision mechanical tools and electronic equipment for sale - at a fraction of the new price.



Rohde & Schwarz, T-section, 6dB splitter, Polyskop accessory for sale

This is a Rohde & Schwarz 2-way resistive splitter designed for use with the Polyskop range of spectrum analysers. It consists of 3-off 16.6 ohm resistors connected in a 'star' configuration in a diecast housing, each free end being terminated in a Dezifix connector. The resistors have been checked with a meter as approximately correct at DC, but no high-frequency tests have been done. It is in good condition with R&S plastic dust caps for each connector. Markings are BN 42441/50, FNr. F1853/12 (made in 1953?)

Certainly a talking point for the mantelpiece; it may even work!

Price: £2.00.



Toshiba CD-ROM drive Model XM1902B for sale

This is a Toshiba CD-ROM drive designed for use in laptop computers. It was manufactured in June 1999 according to the label. It was purchased in error (wrong connector for the computer) from a reputable secondhand supplier (PCHUB.COM, online at: www.pchub.com), supplied with 1 month warranty, and never used by us!

It is believed working and has been carefully stored in bubblewrap, but purchase at your risk.

Price: £2.50 (cost £20.76, when purchased in February 2006).



A mechanical dial gauge (measuring force from 100 to 1000 grams) for sale

This is a hand-held instrument with a sense arm 5 centimetres long and a dial of over 6 centimetres diameter, fitted with a limit pointer. It is in working order, but not calibrated. The dial is marked: CORREX, Haag Streit, Bern, Swiss-Made).

It comes with its own snap-closure case (17 x 9 x 4 centimetres in size), which has an undated calibration label on the case showing this instrument to have been the property of M.E.L. (in Crawley, West Sussex).

Price: £4.00



This catalogue completely replaces the previous catalogue (of 9th December 2011) and all earlier ones.

Please use this catalogue, rather than older ones, to avoid disappointment.



For the convenience of our customers, we now have a PayPal account to allow payments to be made securely and in foreign currencies without the cost & bother of obtaining a sterling draft. A PayPal 'link' will be sent with the confirmation E-mail to enable this to be done.



Following a recent major acquisition, we now have a very large stock of ORIGINAL operating & service manuals for electronic equipment. These can vary from a few loose-leaf sheets of paper to hundreds of pages properly bound with many photographs - and are priced accordingly.

For ease of finding them, these items are only briefly described as "User manual" or "Service manual", followed by the equipment type and number. Unless stated, all these manuals are manufacturers' originals, complete and in good to very good condition, excluding minor creases or wear of the corners. Notes may have been added. Further description will be only be added if the items significantly differ from this.

Further details of any item will be supplied on request by E-mail.

The easiest way to find them, will be to use the 'Sorted by: Title' page and look for "User manual - ...." or "Service manual - ....".



There are a number of relatively modern technical data books (in the Science & Reference section), which we hope will be of interest. The easiest way to find them, will be to use the 'Sorted by: Date' page.
