Re: What's this Baird?
This series of sets was not bad performance-wise and is fairly easy to work on as well, i have the dual standard version. The UHF tuner drive setup however is the worst piece of stupid and over-complex design I have ever come across: it uses no less than two rubber friction washers, which either develop "flats" or just shrivel up, and an excessively complex string drive for the slow motion part. I think at least another make had a similarly awful design, possibly Pye. I can only assume it was a particularly "bad hair" day for the designer(s) or that they just bore the world a grudge!
Nice looking set Glyn, go for it!
