I wonder if anyone can offer a picture of the variable selectivity
arrangement of
the Eddystone EA12, which I believe was also used by some other
manufacturers?

This was the scheme whereby coupling between the primary and secondary of
IF
transformers was varied nechanically by distancing the two halves of the
transformer
from each other.

I have access to photos showing the operating levers, but what interests me
for
the moment is to have a peek, or peeks, inside the IF cans themselves.

Well done, that man!

Actually, "No5 Crystal filters and receiver selectivity" has the desired
photo.

Many thanks.

"To boot" seems quite apt for you, old Bean.

Gareth would turn the other cheek, but it's hard to do that when a copper's
got your head pinned to the floor with his size 12 standard issue.

The fact that the plods videoed the arrest tells me that they were
expecting, and got, problems.
More recent allegations of attacking postmen etc confirm their need for
caution.
That plod had no need to top himself over an incident in which he lost his
cool while dealing with an idiot. He had been acquitted and IMHO should have
brought counter-charges for defamation.
