Default Re: Philips K35 26CS3890

We had this same model with built in printer in Italy but our version came with a regular remote (maybe it was just too expensive to make a voice control chipset that could understand Italian)

This set has a regular speaker without the bass reflex enclosure, which instead was instead used in the "cheaper" version without the printer and teletext modules.

By 1982, 30AX CRTs had been sorted out and no longer failed prematurely like the earlier examples from about 1979-81, actually, i think the "improved" version of the 30AX is one of the most durable tubes ever made
