Well that is yet another electronic issue that has gone right over my head! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

It is all too complicated now. What was wrong with a two channel b&w TV.  I always enjoyed Andy Pandy, Bill & Ben, and Muffin The Mule on that! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

Interactive TV's, I ask you! ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :y

There always seemed more to watch when we only had for channels. Oh the days of the Baird, rented from Rumbelows, with the remote on a long wire.......

You must be so young! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

The TV's I remember in the 1950's were extremely simple by today's standards.  No remotes of any kind ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

Crikey! Better remove all that sensitive data that I store in my TV... and take my savings out of the fridge in case someone hacks that. I suspect I'm still safe keeping the milk in the dishwasher, though. ::)

Nothing at all, I cut my teeth on a Thorn EMI 1500 chassis (dual standard 405/625) B/W valve set when I started with D.E.R back in 82.
