I’ve got a new telly
I found it by the roadside, and it’s currently in the porch drying out.
It seems likely it’s dead, as the mains lead has been cut off, but you never know. I’ll give it a few more days to dry out then I’ll wire a new mains lead to it and see what happens.
The “Why?” is that I have my original computer and I’m keen to set it up again.
I got my ZX81 in 1982, it has 1K of memory, plugs into a TV and stores it’s programs on cassette tape.
Although they can be plugged into an LCD TV, they look and behave best on an old CRT television, hence my excitement at finding this dumped one.
Updates soon, maybe even live video of it going bang when I switch it on.
