Lowe HF-125, HF125 Communications Receiver

John Wilson of Lowe Electronics

Many radio enthusiasts will know John Wilson as one of the people behind the excellent HF Series of radio receivers made by Lowe Electronics, and also as expert author for Short Wave Magazine and Monitoring Monthly. Below are some photographs of John in his youth, sent in by his brother Alan, who writes:

"Here are some photographs of John Wilson in Burnley Road Acrrington where it all began. John was building amateur radio gear from bits from around 13 years old. I remember my Dad telling me that he got caught out by the GPO when he took and passed the amateur radio morse test at the age of 14 when one actually needed to be 16 years of age to get a transmitting license!

Sorry about the poor quality but the pics are scans from plate photos (not 35mm) which were found when we tidied out my sisters attic a couple of months ago.

Kindest regards
Alan Wilson"
