Just two more stallsl available for the BVWS swapmeet at the Broadcast Engineering Museum. There will be lots of interesting kit for sale, including surplus items from the museum's stores. Don't forget that your £8 admission fee covers both the museum and swapmeet.
The BVWS have given us a grant to help build a series of period living rooms. The 1930s and 1970s rooms are now complete. Barring any disasters, we will also have the 1950s room open by 2nd August. It will show a celebration of the 1953 Coronation reflecting the home end of the broadcasting chain. This nicely complements our display of a Marconi MkII camera used at the Coronation.
With lots of working exhibits, some of them hands-on and interactive, It's a great day out for all the family.
Attached is a teaser - a general view of the 1930s room!
