I worked for BT in the 80s/90s since the department was being closed down we had time to recycle new in box Tonto kit which was going in the skip. Some of the monitors were kept back and converted into Colour TVs with parts from Sends the TV parts shop. The Tubes were very good for TV use being Hi definition type. I used my one for many years.
I still have one of the mod sheets.
Nobody wanted the New in box Tonto Keyboards!
