[Waverley ARS] Headline - An old wireless company heeds the new wave

[Simon Buxton]

Hi Edwin

I read this yesterday with interest, in particular that it suggested 
that they have inherited all the old AWA technical records, which of 
course are of great interest to radio collectors.

As a coincidence, I talked to the managing director, John Dougal, about 
the background to the current AWA situation on the AWA stand at the 
Cebit communications show last week but wasn't aware of the radio 
records possibilities. There are some AWA records in the Mitchell 
Library which I researched not longer ago to help a project on Teleradio 
equipment, however most of them were accounting records with no 
technical stuff.

After confirming the situation, I will follow this up with AWA to 
enquire if the records are available and whether they can accessed for 
research, as I know a number of collectors are looking for data on some 
of AWA's early communications equipment.
