TVs in auction - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Wellington · 4th May 2023, 5:41 pm

I noticed a couple of old TVs in an auction room near me. A Bush TUG59 (1955) and more modern Marconiphone.

Auction starts tomorrow (no connection to me etc.)…

I see Lot 682 is exhibiting two classic faults of backlight LED screens - blue LEDs and lenses fallen off. Not too bad to repair in theory, but it's a curved screen so not something I like doing.

Too far away, but if I was local, I would have a punt on that 1500 Mono and reminisce my old TV repair days, by changing R47 and R123, or even perhaps a RS Dropper section
