Hi All
It is a GEC BRT165, looking on the net I think it is a 1955 model due to being VHF only and the light program being moved to 89.1.
The BRT400 is a totally bigger Beast.
The chassis is GEC and I’ve found loads similar look Bc6144 5244 5243 3248
It has a separate power supply rack that non of the bcxxxx have see link to photo's

I am enjoying the Detective work but I am running out of places to look I really need a Service record or a Drawing to start the restoration, I could trace out the circuit but being a novice on the drawing there would be loads of black boxes where I wouldn't know what the KIT was or the test voltages should be.
