Re: Ekco T311
Thanks guys. I'm now as certain as I can be that I've got the exact set that my parents owned. It had FM radio though we never used it. In fact it was always tuned to BBC because it never seemed to work properly on ITV. If I wanted to watch ITV I went upstairs to the rooms where grandma lived and watched her set which seemed to be permanently tuned to ITV. ISTR it was a DER rented set. It had what must have been a photocell behind a hole in the front panel because the brightness varied if I put my hand over the hole. I still have the table on which the Ekco stood. My 20" Ferguson TX98 main telly currently sits on this table. I think it may have to be evicted.
I hope the mods will forgive a little OT nostalgia. If anyone wants to try and identify this DER set perhaps we should start a new thread.
