Mullard 1955/1956 Maintainence Manuals - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hi!

I came across these two mid 1950s Mullard Maintainance Manuals, they cover many 4V and pre-war types, along with octal and more modern types including '96-series battery valves and wire-ended subminatures - very useful for restorers!

Unfortunately the ECL82 isn't covered but copies of later Mullard M.M.'s covering the ECL82, ECL86, duodecal '200s and colour TV valves, etc., can be got from "Frank's Electron Tube" site!

I thought Members might like these!

Get them before the links go everyone!

If they do go I'll provide a Dropbox link!

Interesting, thanks!

Complex substitution instructions given for the (obsolete even then) EFM1.

Thanks for putting that manual up, that will help radio & TV restorers. I have owned this book for many years and have used it at times on & off for practically all of the vintage restorations on UK made valve TV's and radios I have done since the late 1970's, it is a very handy book.

I also have one of these manuals (well, technically still my Dads but he hasn`t missed it)

There appear to have been pink update sheets available to stick in, my manual has them for, inter alia, ECL82, EL34, EL86 and OA79.

Mine has multiple pink update sheets stuck in it too, for various valves and CRT's. It was a good idea to make a manual like that.
