Re: Stuck on a BRC 1400!
Wow, that's a lovely set indeed. Clearly a 1968 model with its push through 23" CRT. I once had the Ferguson equivalent, the 3655 which also employed p/b UHF tuning. I obtained it in 1982 when 405-lines was still transmitting. The first programme I watched on it was a Schools programme on BBC1, channel 2 (North Hessary Tor).
Your HMV is looking good.
More work on the older Ferguson 16" 3645. Replacing the boost feed to the height control, C82, C100 and C104 improved matters immensely. I was pleased to note the valve heaters no longer looked like a string of 40W lightbulbs. Guess the original blue/yellow Dublier ones were leaky. The boost capacitor was also replaced with a 1000V rated replacement.
Cheers
Brian
