The World’s First TV System Was Better Than You Think – Sony 9-90UB 405 Line Test

🍺 BUY ME A PINT! – https://ko-fi.com/robustreviews 🧢 I’ll write your name on the hat! Take a quick look at the Sony 9-90UB, a compact 405-line television from 1970 — and yes, it still works! This set was part of Britain’s first-ever broadcast TV system, running at 405 lines VHF. It’s portable, it’s solid state, and it could even run on batteries if you were brave enough to try. A true bit of retro engineering that still puts out a decent picture over 50 years later. I give it a quick test and demo on-camera, including a look at the surprisingly watchable image quality. Honestly? I’m impressed with how good 405-line TV still looks.
