Oh no! I have just seen the word EMO posted by Rich. These were without doubt the worse colour TV I have ever come into contact with. Come back Fidelity AVS, all is forgiven.

Ordinating from France they were a tangle of wires and E series valves complete with a heavy mains transformer. I encountered quite a few that had caught fire seriously.

I never encountered one that was anything like converged. I scrapped a few for their A56-120X tubes, the best part of them and even they were nothing to write about.

[All past misery of course but imagine what it is like now with constant call outs for retuning and aerial problems causing blocking.]
