Default Re: Earliest BBC2 Sets?

My family had this 19" model set (Pye Olympic ) at the start of BBC 2 in my area which was Ely Cambs at the time. The large dial selected both pre-set 405 VHF and UHF 625 channels. We later had the 405 settings disabled to receive UHF on every position. We used to get both Anglia and Yorkshire tv after the Belmont transmitter changed from radiating Anglia tv to Yorkshire at some point. Have been searching for a well preserved one for some years so I guess they must be quite rare by now. Was pretty reliable in the 10 years we owned it.
