Default Ferguson 705T Phase II

Ref to an earlier topic: https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...ad.php?t=95399
I'm now the owner of one of these unusually styled sets. The Ferguson 705T shown in the attachment is the phase II version and is convertible to 405/625 operation. The line timebase can switched to 625 lines by means of the switch on the left side of the cabinet.
The Mullard AW47-90 CRT is excellent, every bit as bright as the tube in the Decca DR101.
It is my intention to have a metal stand made for this set and I even got ideas about converting the set to 625 lines.
