RIGONDA "STARLET" |
|
NOTES | A
set produced by the Russian manufacturer "V/O Mashpriborintorg".
Most of the components are mounted on a hinged panel that swings horizonal
(see picture below). Uses those funny little transistors that look like miniature flying saucers. I seem to recal that the reception on this set was a tad insensitive. |

SERVICE DATA | I have a copy of the original "Trader" service sheet, a copy of which can also be found on the Vintage Television Service Data CDROM. |
CURRENT STATE | A few battle scars and missing screws. Worked 20 years ago. Daren't switch it on now. |
WHERE FOUND | Swapped for a stereo valve radiogram in the 70's. It later did sterling service as a monitor for my then modern Acorn Atom computer, regularly travelling in a ruck sack between home (Bristol) and Manchester University. It was subsequently retired to the attic from whence I rescued it a couple of years ago. |
You can imagine how tightly packed this gets when you try and
fold the PCB back up to its
normally vertical position.
