B18T from July 1948: http://www.thevalvepage.com/tvmanu/pye/body_pye.htm
The service manual is available from that site too. Thank you Jon Evans for a most useful resource.
First TV with energy recovery line timebase. Quite an advance over the B16T which had mains EHT.
Hook up the aerial with anything that fits. Wander plugs or whatever. You'll still need an attenuator (10dB or so) between the Aurora/Hedghog and the TV.
Remember it's a live chassis set so use an RCD an conenct the mains the right way round. If you need to connect a scope or signal generator then you'll need an isolating transformer.
