- Another set I'm passing on to another collector. Sony's First colour set in the UK(?) This stunningly reliable set still has a superb Trinitron, and all original components!!

11:45 - they were introduced here in the summer of 1971. Television magazine announced their impending arrival in either the May or June edition.
The Hitachi CSP680 just beat it by about a month. I have a 680 service manual dated April 1971.
The set was introduced in Japan in late 1968,N America in 1969 and UK in 1970/71.The 1330ub had a real Pal decoder in it but left the hue control strangely.I have both a 1320 and 1330 and the colour variation with the 1330 control is much less than the earlier model.
A very interesting set. I have heard of the "non-PAL" Sony. Cool to actually see one!
what a find they do command a lot of money these days with a good lamp in them but as you say they were so reliable i remember as an apprentice seeing just a hand full and all with terrible soft tubes , from memory the next model on that was in a whit plastic case went the same way they just ran and ran until the lamp went soft and the super white cabinet went yellow like a 1970's pub ceiling
thanks again another great video i've got two sony kv1320 ub TVs a mark one and a mark 2
My father owned the local TV shop so we were lucky eniugh to have a MK1 from brand new with its dish aerial that did not work where we lived
i thought it was 1969 as we were still selling philips G6s
the MK 2 with the SMPS was not as relgable .and yes shame about the tube life .
They are reliable
But there is another Japanese set that even more reliable
Mitsubishi CT202S about the same age
Very bad idea running the heaters at reduced voltage, it results in cathode poisoning and reduced CRT life, Hitachi soon realised this with its Earley instavision range and issued a modification kit when the CRT was to be replaced.
Is this Germanium wonders how much you paid...
Fairly sure all silicon transistors in this set.
I think so
... And I have just sold this one. Part of my big clear out.
