Rediffusion TDUK.1 single-channel system. | Prototypes were being distributed in April, and an early prototype was
demonstrated in November 1951. |
The only reference I can find to this company is via a list of televisions approved for use in schools when regular schools programmes started in 1957. The two models were the CA21.3 direct-view model using a 21-inch C.R.T, and the CA30.3 rear projection model giving a 30-inch picture.
