I did like the ITT range of TV’s and remember the plug in remote controls. I did not know about the plugin ping pong game, was it sold in the U.K.? We got the ITT agency in the middle 70’s when we were unhappy with Pye and RBM products, we still had those brands in the shop but many preferred the styling of the ITT sets and that suited us.

Faults, not many but triplers, line whistle from inductors, I think they recommended PVA glue but could be wrong, and frame output transistors. Did the remote use a PP3 battery, I seem to recall replacing the connections after damage by customers trying to change the battery.
