Hi,

the E1 for the Berlin radio show was modified. Due to operating time throughout the entire exhibition the original CRT and chassis was removed and kept as it is, and the cabinet was fitted with a newer chassis and CRT of the Philetta TV. The original chassis would fail after some hours as mentioned in the article.

Meanwhile I know that more E1s survived than estimated before. Here is a list of all E1s I currently know:

#1 (Museum of Communication, Berlin)

As far as I know, the first two ones are not operable.
