Default Re: Decca DR101 dual standard TV

I spent ages getting mine running and it's interior was full of woodworm. It was working for a few weeks (courtesy of talking pictures TV) and the audio began to fade out, then the LOPT overheated and dripped wax on the bottom of its cage.

Sad to say it's no longer operational (still looks nice though) and to be honest I got a bit fed up with it so I don't know if it's salvageable. There was no smoke or smell, it was working when I switched it off but didn't come back on so I left it after the wax discovery.

Mind you it does make a nice shelf for some of my Hacker radios.
