Do any examples of the Ferguson "Transvista" survive? Looking it R+TV S it looked to be a more "complete" piece of work than the Pye set (it has a properly styled cabinet instead of a sheet metal box...) but yet it seems to be far more unusual.
Can it really have been so bad that BRC didn't make another solid state monochrome set (the 1590) until over 10 years later?
