Quite possibly - the room's like a radio museum. Until last week it included
a transformer/oscillating reed rectifier which my grandfather used to charge

Quill is a copy; the others may be originals - they have "ABACUS" etc typed

Definitely sound like the originals - if they are black labels, then they could even be v1.00 of the Psion software which was never very reliable and extremely slow !!
