It's good to know I'm thinking along the 'right' lines. Currently
got a provisional 'worth a punt' shopping list of:<br>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://amzn.to/XO5PgB">http://amzn.to/XO5PgB</a> and <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://amzn.to/XO5Tx5">http://amzn.to/XO5Tx5</a> <br>
<br>
but I haven't rules out trying to get an old bit of hardware and
getting something like <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://bit.ly/XO65fH">http://bit.ly/XO65fH</a><br>
<br>
This ebay listing (not UK unfortunately) seems to confirm the RCA
