Re: First Vintage TV now under way – Hedgehog build questions!
The PYE PTV is a well built receiver. It has many wax caps on the swing out boards. The M3 'aluminium pea' style diodes will all need replacement. It has a massive reserve of gain and flywheel sync.
The CRT is either a AW36-20 [aluminised] or AW36-21 [non aluminised] both with electrostatic focus. The original blue Pye service manuals appear to be thin on the ground.
Good luck with it, they give an excellent picture. John.
