YES!!! I remember him too! As well! Also!
It was actually (according to Poxipedia, that well known on-line tooth-sayer), manufactured from an old bed headboard, obtained no-doubt, by nefarious means, from 37 Florence Road...properties there fetch about Ł1600 per month in rent currently.
Do you remember the loudspeaker cabinet(s) obtained by similar means from Pelham High School?
I'm sure we sold them to Uttam Chuck-a-ravory, to make up his mammoth 100x4 bass "wall of sound", which he transported to gigs in his mothers' wheeled shopping basket (pronounced wheel - ed show-ping bar-sket).

Anyhow, I digress...The headboard has relay contacts (obtained by legal means) from the GPO (BT to all you youngsters out there), either via Jim Bone or Pete Groves.
Talking of whom, see:

The contacts were sellotaped down, and the whole kit and caboodle controlled a simple oscillator.

I remember using the device in Pete's bedroom....more of this on:
