Default Re: Asbestos in Pye b16t?

Exactly what I thought when I started to read this thread!

I have never found any Asbestos in a B/D16T in fact any television receiver chassis other than washers around the mains dropper in AC/DC models as Graham has mentioned. [Just don't disturb them]

You need to take very great care when handling this chassis. The live end of the EHT capacitor etc is exposed without any form of guard or cover and easily touched if you are not familiar with mains derived EHT systems. Plenty of sound advice on this Forum.

Don't let your Dad read this as he might panic and throw it out.

Pity about the gas mask. John.
