B&W TV Toshiba 12SB
This is my 1975 Toshiba 12SB. Originally, this model was called the 12SS for "12 inch solid state" but for the UK we got a "B" for Britain as the UK spec has the VHF section removed and the gap not very subtly hidden!
My Wife actually spotted this for sale locally so I picked it up for £10 untested. There wasn't any leads with it and it had a proprietary connector for the mains and 12 volts so I traced the power connections inside. After slowly increasing the power slightly out of focus static appeared. After trying it out with my Amiga computer for a couple of hours the focus had improved a little but I noticed that familiar smell of a failing electrolytic capacitor. I didn't want to take any chances so I just replaced the lot.
After shotgunning the electrolytic capacitors and a quick tweak the picture is really good! Massive thanks to Chris crustytv for getting the service manual scanned in for the 12SB as I couldn't figure out how the focus was adjusted.

@wayned Good to hear you sorted this out, especially testing it out with the very amusing & under-rated Daria.

Does anyone remember the radio ads they had in the 70s? At least in Oz anyway.
I'll try to re-create the phonetics, imagine the Japanese accent:
"Not Tosh - shiba! Tosh - he - bar!"
And then there was the famous TDK ad -

I think the Tosh ad's were likely tailored to the country, we got the 'Cockney-geezer' type, "Hello Tosh, gotta Toshiba".

@richardfrommarple The funny thing about Daria is when I originally watched it back in the 90s I really related to her. Now that I'm a parent of an 8 and 14 year old, I relate more to her parents!
@till this is on the back! From Googling it looks like the business went under in 1979. On Google street view it looks to be a Bookies now.

@wayned Daria's sister Quinn was a bit like my sister as a teenager, luckily she's grown up OK.
