Default Re: Baird T5 restoration project.

Hi David,
my experience with the T5 was that flashing over of either the line or frame output valves would happen if the height/width were advanced too high, if the frequency was way off, or if an noise got through the sync separator. It seemed to calm down once everything was properly warmed up.

In my Garrick, which is a develoment of the T5 design, PEN46 valves replace the 41MP valves. The PEN46 was designed for line output use.

Cheers
Andy
