Default Re: Ferguson 247T: huge console TV set.

I think it is agreed that the tuner unit needs cleaning up, it ain't pretty.
I think that it possible that the oscillator HT feed resistor has gone high in value. The tuner has to be "shocked" in operation by pulling the PCF80 out and back in again or the other trick is to flick the tuner turret fast. These actions seem to kick the oscillator into life again.
