Thanks for the tip about the movie "Castles in the Sky".
I just watched it on youtube. I enjoyed it except where the
image tended to run off the top and bottom of the screen.
I've been really interested in early British radar ever since
I bought a Chain Home transmitter tube from my good friend
Phil Taylor from the UK. He was working with a group restoring
the last remaining Chain Home station since all the rest of
them had been scrapped. He managed to save me one of the tube
and bring it to me at the Charlotte antique radio meet a few
years ago.
Just this past week he brought me two of the British designed
NT-98 10cm magnetrons increasing my collection of these rare
tube to four.
If you're interested you can visit my web page showing my
Chain Home tube at;

I wish we could attach photos to these messages, if I could
I'd show you some pix of the Magnetrons.
cheers
