Hi
Just got myself a lockdown project in the form of a Bush TV22 Mk2. It will be my first attempt to revive a tv , have restored a couple of radios ( both Phillips), and deconsructed quite a few TVs in my youth.

Got the Bush via EBay

Appears to be in quite good nick to look at , no woodworm in the wooden bits and rubber insulation seems in pretty good condition

CRT heater has continuity and no shorts to other pins.

I notice the width control is fully to the right so maybe something had gone a bit adrift when last used

Just going through all the resistors at the moment , most seem ok , a bit high as expected, one or two quite a way off.

Will update as I go.
