Beautiful set. My grandparents had on. I remember watching William Hartnell in Dr Who.

Good to see this. This model was the first 'whole' TV I managed to acquire as a youngster. Unfortunately, after a short time I dismantled it as you do when as a kid. I liked the way Philips often allowed boards and chassis to swing out on hinges for servicing on their early TVs. Although if played with too much wires would start to break off tags adding to the fault finding trail.

I'm pleased to see how you've set the horizontal and vertical scan amplitudes (a reasonable compromise for the screen shape). But back in the day, sets were always set to overscan - no black visible at all - which always irritated me, as I'd rather have a (slightly) smaller picture but at least see all of it!

Fascinating. This is exactly the same television that we had back in the 1960's. I still have a 1970's 5 inch black and white Plustron 625 line TV, which still works. I can still use it because I found a TVonics freeview box being sold off cheap at Aldi, which, unusually, has an rf output. Combined with an indoor amplified aerial from Lidl, still gives a working bedside tv/radio!

Great video, if we watch it too long we will all start growing handlebar moustaches. Good to see you back.

Presumably you can show the picture unstretched, but then you'd have black lines at the top and bottom of the screen

A lot of (I think still most) FreeView boxes let you choose widescreen (for modern-ish montiors), 4:3 pan-and-scan (really centre cutout as none of the broadcasters actually _use_ that control) which is what's shown here, and 4:3 letterbox which is what you're describing.

An auto transformer is not an isolation transformer as the input and output neutrals are connected together so you are not properly isolated......be careful!

That was a slip of the tongue.. it is a proper isolation transformer

And of course of actual picture content, it was something like 376i ...
