... when Marconi kit is working the way it was intended, it does work very well. Just a pity that it is often such a headache to do maintenance on.

You should have told me that before I got stuck into the 'scope

Hi Alan,
Have you got a Marconi scope?
I was with Marconi from 67 to about 72, but I only ever saw or worked on Tektronix Scopes. Marconi had an extremely good documentaion dept in Chelmsford, I wonder what happened to the docs etc.
I always wanted to try and get hold of one of their Crusader receivers but I have never seen or heard of one. Maybe they were never put into production (1967/8)
It was built into a small rack and was about the same size as a washing machine, maybe a tad higher. Fully synthesized tuning and a host of other features.

Mike,

I actually have 2, a TF1331 and a TF2203, which Bill Nichols tells me is actually a badged EMI 101.
The TF1331 is going very slowly - http://golbornevintageradio.org/forum/sh...p?tid=3575
