    It is a 2nd hand reissue (series iv). It is diffult and expensive to get gec kt88...instead, going to buy in nos reissue gold lion(russia) kt88 at about C$90 per pair here. As well, all the original small china tubes have to be replaced too.... Put in mullard 12at7, and telefunkan 12ax7.

    Maybe the children also dived into the sea to retrieve them to earn extra pocket money.

    I also think your pics are beautiful, especially the black & white. Thanks for sharing! But how come you use BC's name? ;)

    that would be a tough job! most area including all footbridges along that route will be sealed!
    so i think it would be more easier for u to cover either the start (hk cultural centre) or the finish (golden bauhinia square) or even both! coz there will be more open space!

    anybody notice something wrong with the second pic.

    the man is wearing rubber boots which reach his calves but the water is until is knee.

    is he wearing it to protect his feet from the coral?
