Nah, this is cheating, far too difficult for amateurs. Perhaps you and
John Byrns and Steve Bench and Patrick Turner could do it, but three

likely been in the biz and the fourth is a nut case. I'm pretty nutty
myself but when I wanted a little one-station (BBC4) tube radio, I
went straight to Steve and instantly passed go.
