[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 448689, member: 1408"] As usual you are not wrong Doc . Grew up without a television set until I was about 10 yrs . Hence I am still a great fan of radio. My Dad saved up what was then a small fortune to buy a 12 inch B&W TV. A Regentone with a rotary channel dial , however much you turned it there was just the one channel . A test card was displayed until around 2.00 pm I think , when horse racing was shown until about 4.00pm when Children's Hour came on with Andy Pandy or the Woodentops . Then for us slightly older kids came The Lone Ranger , Hopalong Cassidy or Roy Rogers . After that 1/2 hour there was nothing more for kids . Auntie Beeb was stuck well up it's own rear , downward facing waste fuel orifice until Commercial TV was launched and gave the Beeb a mighty kick up same orifice and propelled them out of the 1940's.
