Italian Simple-PAL TV sets

[WellInformed]

Dear Collectors,

as known, in Europe during the early days of PAL color TV introduction in the second half of the 1960's, there have been sold SIMPLE PAL TV sets on the market.

SIMPLE PAL means, that there was no expensive glass delay line installed to cut the costs.

• Most known is the for european standards adopted and modified GE Porta Color as German KUBA CK211P with different tube and circuit setup.

• Further in Italy the CGE TPC279/11
• and just mentioned at RM.org a TELEFUNKEN Italy TELECOLOR T479 with the same chassis but with a slightly different housing. And where you could see a model number "747" at the rear side?

Question: Did any collector know more about any real TELEFUNKEN (Italy) SIMPLE PAL TV set? Was it just a prototype? Are there more labeled GE PAL versions sold?

Please: Just SIMPLE PAL TV sets were requested. Not PAL TV sets with delay line in general.

Thanks for your support.
