Hi all!
Some months ago I bought from a friend of mine this Philips X26K221, with multistandard chassis KM1-L. The KM1 is the first color multistandard chassis made by Philips in 1970, and the variant KM1-L was made for using more recent parts (delay lines for example) in 1972. This is the last Philips chassis that uses tubes, because the full transistorized chassis K9 and KM2 (multistandard) was made respectively in 1973 and in 1974. My set is like new, it's incredible! When I opened it for the first time I found the printed circuit in the power supply with some burnded areas under the rectifiers diode, and a bad NTC... Probably the fault of the diodes happened a few years after this set was purchased, and after that the NTC broke down the original owners decided to buy a new TV...

That's one heck of a survivor.

Wow, nice find!

I got a Philco color roundy like that. All that was wrong with it was some small damage to the fake wood on the top and the horizontal oscillator needing a tweak. The thing barely had any dust in it either...

Tom, I'd love to see your Philco :)

For changing the transmission standard this set has 12 selectors in the back, with 4 positions for european PAL, belgian PAL, french SECAM 625 lines and 819 lines. After I select a channel with another standard many relays change their position for detect the new transmission with the proper circuits. A bigger relay under the EHT cage change the windings of the flyback for 819 lines transmissions.

Wow you got a tv wit a big honkin relay in it..... way cool....

I like that sci-fi looking stacking of the flyback and the hv rect. tubes...

That set chould have been a see-thru cabinet tv.
