The Bush TV24 must be one of the most unfortunate of early 1950s TV receivers. Until recently most of them were broken up to be nothing more than a source of spare parts for it's smaller brother, the TV22.

Sure it doesn't look much, a bit plain looking perhaps, but like all Bush TV sets it is beautifully made.

I must confess I was one of the many who chopped up a TV24 for the parts, including a rare TV24C, the dual band version.

Anyway, last week I decided to give my own TV24 a service and the results can be seen on the attached pictures.

No variacs were used during the servicing of this set.
