And Then There Were None Hints
Parlor Radio
1 of 9: You don't need to fix the radio in the parlor if you don't want to, but feel free if you'd like a little cheerful thirties-type dance music repeated endlessly.
2 of 9: If you try to switch it on, Narracott makes a helpful comment.
3 of 9: It's getting power, so the cord is all right. Did you try opening it up to see what's wrong?
4 of 9: It's missing some parts; there are three empty slots here. If you've never seen a radio this old, you maybe don't realize that what you're looking for are vacuum tubes, big glass things that look a little like lightbulbs.
5 of 9: You'll find what you need in other electronic devices around the house.
6 of 9: There are two tubes in the gramophone (although in actual reality, gramophones aren't electronic and don't have tubes, but never mind that now) and one in the radio in the library safe.
7 of 9: Put the three tubes in place, and voila --
8 of 9: -- nothing happens. You also need an antenna. Which there's no way you could know this, I don't think, so I'll just tell you how to get it.
9 of 9: Go to the kitchen and take the copper wire basket off the table next to the door to the dining room. Use the pliers (you picked them up from the passage in the grotto) on this basket to get a coil of copper wire. Use the wire on the back of the radio and turn it on.
