R&TVS Index? - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Was there ever an index listing the models covered by the R&TVS volumes?

A nearby library keeps a set (1986-87 seems to be the latest). I refer to these occasionally but it can be a time-consuming business searching several volumes, looking for data which may or may not exist. A single index covering all the volumes would make this so much easier. I thought there might be something in one of the later volumes, but couldn't find anything.

Can anyone confirm if such an index exists?

Thanks

Roy

Hi,
Yes.
A cumulative index was produced covering the 52 to 86 volumes. It does not cover the final (86/7) vol.
I have a copy of this but cannot find any ISBN.
I assume it was given as a freebee with the 85/6 edition.

I have a fairly comprehensive index of the first 10 years or so here:

www.g1jbg.co.uk/service.htm

It's near the bottom of the page, titled "Radio and Television Servicing, 1946 to 1964"

I'll add more volumes when I get time (I found that the published index didn't always find things like tuners, that were often listed seperatly from the main diagram).

Jim.

As far as I recall, that was how I acquired mine.

Incidentally, I hadn't realised that the 1986/87 volume was the last produced. This means that my set is complete!

Many thanks to all for your responses.

Armed with this information, future visits to the library should be much less frustrating.

Cheers
