Two main types-multiple and single-are available. Both are equally efficient, the type selected depending on the particular application. These seals are easy tofit(usually soft soldering).They have high insulation resistance and provide vacuum -tight joints 45 which will withstand all normal variations in pressure and temperature. Experience has proved that these standard seals meet the majority of requirements, but our Engineers will be pleased to discuss applications outside the scope of this range.

The anode -to -anode loading should be 8k52, corresponding to the normal loading published for the original circuit.Best results are obtained with each half of the output transformer primary tapped at about 43% of its number of turns, counting from the centre -tap. Suitable output transformers are the Parmeko P2642 and the Partridge P4014. In the feedback loop C12 will normally be 100pF for a 15(1 loudspeaker or 220pF for 3.750. The lower part of the table gives a comparison between the performance of the '5-10' circuit with the original pentode push-pull (A) and distributed load operation (B). The measurements were made on circuits modified according to the information given in the "High Quality Sound Reproduction" booklet. Distortion is very much reduced in the distributed load circuit whilst retaining the original design rating of 10 watts. The maximum power output of 11 watts at the overload point (onset of clipping with sinewave input) is somewhat less than for the original circuit. However, the rate at which distortion increases beyond the 11 -watt point (that is, the slope of the Pout/Dtot curve) is very much less than for the basic circuit driven beyond 14 watts. There is virtually no change in the frequency response. Overall stability is considerably better than in the basic design, partly because the lower distortion is obtained with reduced loop gain.

  • Bernard Was Born on 30Th June 1906 in Aston, Birmingham
    PRE-GREECE Driver Bernard Cashmore, RASC Previous Service Bernard was born on 30th June 1906 in Aston, Birmingham. As a teenager he enlisted in the Dorsetshire Regiment on 26th June 1925, just 5 days before his 19th birthday. The standard engagement was 7 years at the Colours followed by 5 on the Reserve List. His daughter tells us that “while in the reserves he signed a declaration that he was willing to be attested to serve in the RASC for a period of four years provided His Majesty should so long require his services”. France With the clouds of war gathering over Europe, Bernard enlisted in the RASC on 3rd October 1938. He sailed for France with the British Expeditionary Force on 5th September 1939, just two days after the declaration of war. Eight months later massed German forces invaded Belgium and France and by the end of May the BEF was retreating to the beaches around Dunkirk. Their famous rescue (codenamed Operation Dynamo) took place between 26th May and 6th June 1940. Few British civilians were (or indeed are) aware that tens of thousands of British and Allied soldiers were cut of further south in France. The little-known main plan launched to evacuate these men was codenamed Operation Aerial. It was activated between 15th and 25th June1940. Driver Bernard Cashmore was safely taken off on 18th June. Ports utilised during the evacuation of British and Allied forces, 15–25 June 1940, under the codename Operation Ariel 1 Wikipedia states: Operation Aerial was the name given to the Second World War evacuation of Allied forces and civilians, from ports in western France, from 15 to 25 June 1940.

The Lancastria and other ships had been dispatched to evacuate civilians and service personnel from South West France (Operation Aerial) as the Germans occupied the country. It was bombed off St Nazaire with over 6,000 embassy staff, refugees, soldiers and RAF personnel on board. A ‘D’ notice prevented the reporting of the disaster (Churchill said that there had been ‘enough bad news’. France capitulated to Hitler that day too.

Chairman’s Report Elizabeth Cartwright-Hignett has announced that her son William is getting married soon. Members of the Italian Chigi-Zondadari and German von Sandizell families will be present. 2. Secretary’s Report . He has been sent a package of 49 old postcards and photos of Aynho. There were mostly purchased or taken by the daughter of a woman, Fanny Watts, who was born in Aynho in 1870. She left here and married a John Irons, and they had a daughter Constance Mary Irons. Some of these pictures we already have, but as Constance kept them in a folder, they are in pristine condition, and are better detailed than ours. More importantly, she has identified some of the people in the cards or photos.

We all know about Dunkirk, but there were 12 other evacuations, which took place immediately afterwards in 1940. The talk deals with everything chronologically, but is combined with Bob’s own story of his family’s move from Singapore, which took place over the same two months. He had been born there, and his father was recalled to England as he was a civil engineer in the Admiralty, and was needed at home.

This booklet has been written in honour of every Old Petriburgian, known or unknown, who made that ultimate sacrifice. The details have been compiled from a variety of sources, including records held by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, the General Register Office and The National Archives. Some information has also been extracted from contemporary local newspapers held by the relevant Library and Archives Sections, and from other publications. Many details are from The King’s School’s own archives, including photographs and information kindly given to the school by relatives of those who died. This booklet owes much to the substantial contributions made by the late Commander C.J.G Willis, Peter Miller, Judith Bunten, Jenny Davies and Trevor Elliott, to each of whom many thanks are due. Their generous and enthusiastic collaboration has been truly invaluable and much appreciated. Grateful thanks are also due to the many individuals and organisations that have kindly provided information from their archives and have granted permission to include photographs from their collections, including The War Graves Photographic Project.
