Hi

 > Wonder what these'd be worth today?
A few bob. All depends what condition they are in. My 62 set with headset, 
power leads, xtal calibrator, rod aerial and working 100% is worth between œ150 
and œ200. The 19set between œ250 and œ300

 SB>> can't use them at the present, as I only have a UK M1 licence for 30Mhz

Yes, I find it is the lack of time to actyaly sit down on a regular basis.

 SB>> Will it all improve after the 2003 conf were it is 99% certain that
 SB>> morse will be scrapped for HF access, will have to wait and see.

As an emission. Not banned, just dropped as a requirement for HF access. The 
RSGB and Radio Agency are working out new licence exams. It may be a 3 tier 
system, foundation, novice, full. Will have to wait and see.
