I sincerely hope the guy who ran these stations is ok, had a deep voice. I do wonder if he lives in SE still or if he
emigrated to somewhere.

He played this track Hocus Pocus by Focus very energetic track.

Radio ramzan is strong on it now, I don’t know if it might be in wakefield, since its coming in and both the horizontal and the vertical with the aerial aiming south, usually low power signals go when the aerial is moved round. I checked here ramzam is fairly weak, it could be coming from the south of Leeds, I think that maybe the best direction for the receiver, I know when we used to go up Emley moor you’ve have a really clear view over to Leeds/Bradford. 87.7 is on from bradford at the moment too, I can pick it up here weaker still compared to ramzan, theres nothing coming through on the receiver there of it, makes me think ramzam might be from wakefield, interesting I suppose, maybe someone could work this mystery out.

I'm working on an updated version of the PCB, which will be smaller than the original one I did, but has extra spaces for parallel resistors (or series in some cases) for the less usual values, so that it can alll be built with E12 series resistors (which will save constructors going shopping for some of the less usual values used).  For example, 50k 1% is difficult to find, but 100k 1% is a common value, so putting a pair in parallel will get you there. 

I'm rapidly getting a dislike of the policies of some component suppliers - small quantities (10s) are often as expensive as 100 off, and the postage charges are insane!

As far as possible, I'm trying to stick to common values and trying to re-use values (like the 6n8 used throughout the filter above).  This makes construction more economical.  I was going to redesign for 10n throughout (which would be cheaper, even at 1%), but the resistor values became horribly awkward and would need as many as seven resistors in combinations of series and parallel to achieve the values!

As usual, electronic design is a whole lot of compromises!
