My toys include a 1959 Velocette LE. Currently fitted with a fully working Pye radio, which I have recrystalled for an amateur radio band.
This is some of my amateur radio kit. The kite is a 6 foot wingspan Cody that I use for lifting wire antennas into the air. The Cody Kite was designed by early flying pioneer Samuel Cody, who was American, but he moved & worked in the UK, using his kites to routinely lift men 2000 feet into the air. He also made the very first powered flight in Britain in October 1908.
Samuel Cody is the Great Grandfather of the well known BBC journalist John Simpson.
