Default Re: Baird T5 restoration project.

Hi Ed, Re: the 41MP, I'll give you a call today.

After wiring the CRT into the circuit the results from last night's efforts have proved disappointing, just a defocused vertical line. No horizontal deflection whatsoever. The T5 timebase unit chassis was tested in the T23 and was working fine. I accept the fact the Plessey scanning coils attached to the Ferranti tube will not be a perfect match but I would have expected some horizontal deflection. Also, the brightness control doesn't work. Image is at maximum brightness.
