That's incredible!

I have wondered what sort of color set would have been in England. I bet such a TV was in Buckingham Palace and the homes of The Beatles, etc.

I haven't had to do an awful lot to get it going, but I have bodged the burst-gate to get the PAL switch and subcarrier regenerator to operate correctly and that will need fixing properly sometime soon. The attached picture of the set (model CVB100) is quite small, there is a bigger picture at: http://www.oldtechnology.net/misc/CVB100.jpg

Kind regards.
