Marco,

Welcome to V-K! Your english is outstanding!

Funny, I've been to Italy 17 times (US Navy!) but only speak common phrases.

You are w-a-a-y north! Switzerland is only a few Kilometers away! Lucky you!

You have some wonderful sets - I remember working on similar Panasonic sets in my youth. That Telefunken PALcolor is awesome - I really like the labeling of the Printed circuit boards.

di nuovo, benvenuto !

Cheers,

Hi KOMET. I just signed up to the forum because of your post. Specifically the PALcolor. We used to have one identical to it but mounted on its own stand. It served us for nearly 20 years (in Germany through the 80's, then Jordan thourgh the 90's) back then TVs were something of a lifetime investment. I got hit with the nostalgia bug and decided to look for info/pics on it, ours went the way of the Dodo more than 10 years ago. 20 years and never knew its model number. We still the stand somewhere though.

Nice TV Komet. I never saw waveforms and voltages listed on a printed circuit before!

BTW did Nordmende also make TV sets?

Hi

This is a 1978 PALcolor Supercontrol with 712A chassis, and a IR remote. I also have a 1976 PALcolor Supersonic, ultrasonic remote and 712 chassis, and the portable PALcolor 614 delta tube and 511 chassis. Very reliable sets and absolutely amazing picture.

This is the PALcolor Supersonic with remote Supersonic 303.
