Hi Julian

The South African Broadcasting Corp had quite a few Neve's at one stage, but someone from LA came through about 10 years ago and bought all the unused stuff. Saw 3 empty frames lying in their basement about 8/9 years ago. The stuff that they still have is being kept very carefully right now. The SABC was a bastion of the apertheid government at the time so the faceplates were engraved in Afrikaans......

Regards
Peter
