Our first TV was either an HMV1802 or an 1805 I remember Andy Pandy, The Woodentops, Testcard C, and even the black on white cruciform "Art Bars", but not the line whistle, but would I have noticed at seven years old (me, not the TV) when it was replaced with an HMV1871?

That set certainly whistled, and was phenomenally reliable throughout its 20 year lifetime.

I don't seem to be able to hear 10,125Hz now though.
