Crikey! That's a lot of knobs 👍 Thanks Chris, I'll PM you some dimensions & photos later this weekend.

Another update on this set. A new 30FL1 arrived and was fitted...no difference. The fault was still there, erratic line hold and loss of line drive after a couple of minutes. More cold checks and foll...

Hi all. Work has stopped on this set until a new 30FL1 arrives (hopefully this week). Checking the line drive on the PL504 and it was varying between -60 & -5 volts. Cold checks on the line oscill...

Just a quick question about the valve line up in this set. All the valves bar the PCL805, PY801 & PL504 are Mazda branded. The PL504 is a Mullard - possibly a replacement? The other 2 are branded ...

@richardfrommarple Hi Richard, the set came with the HMV sales brochure and price list from February 1969I'll have another look at this set over the weekend

This little (16") set appeared on (Facebook) marketplace search last Sunday afternoon. It was too close to ignore & the seller was only asking £20 for it. Within an hour it was back at my place....

@charlieboy45 Hi Charlie Subject to Covid restrictions & distance, I am quite happy to take a look at this set for you in a repair capacity. I cannot help with any conversions though. Best regards...

This set has two power switches, which might leave the CRT heater powered aka Instavision?. The main switch is a rocker at the front bottom right.

Hi Marion No the phone doesn't support contactless charging. What you are seeing is the phone detecting a USB connection. If you swipe down from the top of the screen you will see various USB options....

It was good to meet up with you Marion, hopefully the VCR's won't be more than new belts & a clean (they looked like they had been stored well). As to the phone, Motorola do put a clean version of...

This set is still available if any body wants it? Mod Note: Set is now with Marion (Katie Bush) so no longer available.

The VCR's are with me now, ready for their journey east on Sunday

Thanks for these. That's my lunchtime reading sorted for the next week or so

No problem EmleyMoor ?

I'm happy to store these VCRs, When EmleyMoor collects the stuff I have for him. Also I could probably get them to you when I visit Chris once the Covid-19 situation is under control.

Crikey, I'd forgotten about this set. You're right, it did have a red button for tuning. I had to replace the back-up battery to cure it's memory loss. The set ended up with Graham of Imogen fame.

Lordy, I've got a few. One underneath the main telly, a JVC HR-S770, a Panasonic NV-730 under my bedroom CVC5. All-sorts in my workshop/man cave and recently discovered in a bedroom wardrobe....Atta...
