    A 17" portable AC-operated TV receiver, in which silicon planar transistors have mostly replaced valves. Flat face rectangular front, "new-look" picture tube. Suitable for operation in all but extreme fringe areas.

    Features: lightweight aluminium chassis, printed board and transistors in signal (low power) circuits; valves and handwiring for high current sections. Inbuilt telescopic antenna with provision for easy connection to external antenna. Full-width drop-down carrying handle. Speaker, front-mounted, 5" x 3"; output 1½ watt. Hearing aid socket for personal listening (an earpiece is supplied). Neutrode turret tuner for 13 channels. (MINGAY'S PRICE SERVICE)

    Most of the transistors and diodes listed occur more than once.

    Early production runs used Horizontal Output Transformer, EMI Part No. 908-0851. Commencing April 1967 this was replaced with EMI Part No. 908-0881. (TDS No. 40)
