Theres no microprocessor control on this G8 !. Philips reduced their costs on this later 22" version by using a moulded front and changing some electrical parts. Engineers enjoyed working on them because of their easy access modular construction ,excellent picture quality when set up correctly ( the H.T, overvolts trip, and beam limiter had to be spot on by the manual to get good EHT regulation) and relative reliability over other makes ,although LOPT and tripler replacement was a regular but easy job on this model. During the colour television boom in the UK of the early to mid seventies there were waiting lists of customers and most of these sets were sold or rented before they had even left the production line. Despite colour television being launched in 1967 many families with limited incomes were watching seven and eight year old monochrome sets purchased or rented to get the 1964 UHF only BBC2 transmissions, these sets were coming to the end of their useful life by the early seventies as the poor quality tubes fitted to them started to fail. The cost of a first generation colour set in 1967 was out of reach for many and production levels were quite low at first as the manufacturers were on a steep learning curve making such complex pieces of equipment . The BBC and IBA had settled into a full colour service on the three UHF stations by the early seventies. Set prices and VAT were reduced as well as the expensive first generation hybrid dual standard UHF- VHF set designs became the next generation solid state single standard UHF only TVs . There was also full employment and steady economic growth up to 1973. This particular period saw imported sets by B&O Tandberg Telefunken Teleton Sanyo Saba Salora Sony Grundig and Korting being sold by eager retailers. The first Hitachi solid state sets came out in the UK at this time and were extremely reliable making them very good rental sets , the pre heated tube model CNP190 tended to take the tube a little off the boil after a few years of use and the tuning presets were not the best idea but other than that they were very good. We were the first Hitachi dealer in the county and had excellent after sales support from the Hitachi rep. who called on a regular basis and helped with any spares issues, but parts were seldom needed for Hitachi's back then. By 1974 Saba Telefunken and Grundig were using multifunctional ultra sonic remote controls on their more up market 26 inch models. The Grundig had one of the first plug in diagnostic check systems at this time, although the module was expensive to purchase. Telefunken developed the PAL colour system for the UK. They were also the inventer of a video disc player in the early seventies but it had a restricted play time of 10 minutes. BRC brands like Ferguson HMV Baird etc. were being rented by Radio Rentals DER Granada and Multibroadcast (Thorn 3000 3500 4000 8000 8500 8800 chassis) but supplies to retailers were not so freely available because of the demand. At one time the Ferguson 8500 was the cheapest 18 inch screen colour set available in the UK . An example of one of their most popular monochrome televisions the 1500 is in the Science Museum London .Apart from valve failures , mains dropper open circuits,EHT trays and a little resistor in the sync separator circuit going open circuit it was pretty reliable but spoilt by a rather cheap plastic cabinet. Like the previous 1400 chassis it suffered from intercarrier sound buzz on high contrast pictures which despite many attempts by various engineers was never completely cured .Many people just wound the contrast back . Another very good set from the period was the Decca Bradford/ Hybrid 30 ( the all wooden CS2230 version was the nicest) which had a valve transistor combination. It was extremely reliable only having about half a dozen stock faults which consisted of occasional valve failure , boost capacitor shorts, wonky width controls , sound or field output failure and simple power supply problems. Telefunken used the same hybrid chassis for their smaller screen models, again in teak or darker wood finish cabinets. Both these sets (Philips G8 and the Decca Hybrid) plus the very nice ITT KB CVC5 models were head and shoulders above the competition for colour picture quality and general reliability. Older engineers will remember GEC and the Pye hybrid models with their CDA panels plus the Bush Murphy sets with the nylon runners inside the mechanical tuners that would break on a regular basis causing tuner drift , the push bar on the Ferguson and RBM mechanical tuners caused a similar problem.
