Keep receiving second chance offer from ebay. WHY ME!! I don't know how we can stop that. Back to my collection. I live in Italy but moved here not too long ago. I am originally from Belgium and most of my collection (roughly 130 sets) is there. I only have a few samples here with photos. I will add more photos when back in BE (end of august). Most of the sets on pictures are belgian sets (PHILIPS). These sets all came with the french 819 lines positif modulation (L standard), belgian 819 lines positif modulation and reduced BW from 11 mhz to roughly 6mhz (B). Belgian 625 lines positive modulation (B) and "CCIR" or what will be, 625 lines negative modulation (E). Lots of different sound mods AM, FM and subcarriers all over the place, before and after video mod. A few sets from France, some in un-opened original box from 1955 "Thompson Ducretet" with garantee. One set 441 lines pre 1953. The french went from 441 lines to 819 lines and changed their transmitter after the Eifel tower cought fire I think in 53 or 54. The 819 was abandoned in 1973 when the ORTF1 swithed to SECAM color 625 (L). Most of Europe was in PAL. Some sets from Bulgaria and Russia.(Still crated from there, no time to deal with) Some are UK sets 405 lines.(2 pics). In the 50's and 60's it was common to be requested to manually change standards from one program to another. " pour le programme suivant voulez-vous SVP passer en 819 lignes". Meaning for the next program could you please switch to 819 lines. No remote, had to get up and manually change your set. In the 60's they all became automatic. The change would happen with clicking sounds in the set. I have a few color sets from the 60's (multi-standards PAL-SECAM, no NTSC). but no pics here. Still not really collectibles. I also collect juke-boxes ( 10 of them) and bingo machines (45 in working order for a total of 60). AK only let me put 5 pics. Dom
