Very interesting..... wonderful volunteers with a great deal of information. Well worth a visit people should ensure to make a donation to help carry the costs of this wonderful Historic Museum landmark

Lovely little museum, chock full of information about wireless, wartime wireless links and information about Scapa flow. Volunteers who run the museum are lovely and friendly. I learnt a lot from speaking to Mr Jolly and could have spent all day learning about the Orcadian way of life. Some of the displays brought back memories of my great grandmother and her wireless. If you are into ham radio, don't forget to pick up your QSL card/ calling card and drop yours off too. Worth the PS3 entry fee.

Small but very interesting, and the volunteers that run it have interesting stories to tell about the museum and the local history.

This is a brilliant little museum, a real trip down memory lane. The museum us packed full of old radios and yesteryear memorabilia. Entrance costs PS3 and you can enjoy the different exhibits. I was particularly interested in the archive photo collection which has been put together. This museum is run entirely by volunteers and they make your visit worthwhile.
