Yesterday I fixed a late '60s Minerva model "Saratoga", 23'' b&w hybrid flat chassis, six tubes. As usual I found some bad capacitors in AGG, horizontal driver and in audio output stage... This is a typical italian set, but it have one of the best b&w picture I ever seen...
Minerva was originally an austrian brand, but Mr. Luigi Cozzi dell'Aquila in 1937 began to produce radios under license in Milan, Italy. In 1968 Grundig acquired the Minerva brand, and continues the production of radios and TVs until 1980.
