Sony Trinicon DXC 1200P TV Studio Camera - Excercise Of Determination


As an excercise of determination on a cool Sunday morning, I removed all the components from a PCB recovered from the Sony DXC 1200P Trinicon TV Studio Camera, with 1970s and 80s background music from the FM radio station.
The radio is playing "It is now or never " - Elvis Presley - a befitting tune to give new life to an old electronic parts.
Job done in under 3 hours. Feeling good - mind over matter.
Got quite a handful of beautiful chubby old style resistors, tantalum capacitors, polystrene caps, small signal transistors, on DIP IC branded with Sony, one RCA IC ( likely an op amp ), one analog delay line, a pair of shielded signal wire. Not sure what to do with them yet.
