Default Re: Perdio Portarama Dual Standard

In about 1968 the "Television Tube Shop" (in Putney??) sold these off in the form of case, CRT, scan-coils, LOPT and knobs. My friend Bob and I bought such a "kit" each intending to build a 625/UHF-only set in anticipation of all channels moving to that standard which was quite forward thinking! Bob got as far as a raster and probably finished the job but we'd lost touch before reaching that stage. I had a lot of educational catching up to do so mine has stayed as a kit...
