I "converted" it, the picture width was lacking so I reduced the picture height to get the right ratio, can't remember the exact details of the mods I did but I retained most of the original IF circuitry and it tweeked up, not perfect but was ok from a distance, it was my bedroom telly.

Hello,
This reminds me of getting a "just about watchable" BBC2 picture and sound, by feeding a valve UHF tuner's IF output into the aerial socket of a 17" Ekco VHF/405 only set (made around 1957) and turning up the contrast control sufficiently to invert the picture and make it a positive image.
IIRC, this was mentioned as possible in an issue of Practical Television.....?
