Re: Childhood TV memory
Ah - that would be the 980 series that was sold well into the Seventies. In those days it was much easier to get a VHF transmission. Earlier versions had a capacitive dropper that meant the set could take a good five minutes to warm up. Later versions were more conventional at the expense of cool running. They sold very well in the local auction houses in the mid-eighties when 405 stopped. The day after the sale many came into the workshop with the 'no picture - can't be much' complaint!
