Hi all. Just obtained from a lady sorting out her grand aunts estate. In excellent condition. Minor faults on varnish polished. Have not done any check of the electrics yet. Even has instruction manual. I am asking for advice as to what year? Lady I dealt with felt maybe 1957?? Any help would be great..Will keep you posted.  |

If it was made in the first few years of television in Australia it'll only have ten channels. I think channels 0, 5A and 11 were added around 1961 or 1962. ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ A valve a day keeps the transistor away... |

1957 is close. It looks like a 1958 Continental Model 230. |

Precedents are a particular favourite of mine. Simple but well engineered and built, for a budget design. |

Looks to be in very good condition. I don't suppose too many of those are to be found today. |

They are rubber stamped onto the chassis with black ink. Often semi-legible. |
