Transistor radios are not my forte but I need to improve myself. I'll have a go at this Astor set from 1968. The front has yellowed and there is a chunk missing from the case. But first, let's see if I can get it to work.

Check out Carl's Capacitors eBay store for many radio parts and spares and the home of the all black capacitor. Once you've tried black, you can't go back: https://www.ebay.com.au/str/vintagecomponentsandbooks

My Digital Signal Generator:
The Signal Generator is a project kit from a local electronics magazine called Silicon Chip, there is a sister publication in the UK called Practical Electronics, it was featured in the April 2018 edition but mine has a oscilloscope function as well which I don't use. There may be a later edition in PE with that feature.
