The Evolution of Soviet Televisions - Photo Report
May 10, 1932 in Leningar at the factory "Comintern" was produced the first batch of Soviet TVs - 20 prototypes of the device called B-2. This gave rise to the domestic production of television receivers, which had periods of ups and downs, successes and failures. And today we will tell you about the 10 most famous, legendary TVs of the Soviet era, some of which are still working for their intended purpose.
B-2 television set-top box
The B-2 was produced before regular television broadcasts began in the Soviet Union. It was designed in 1931 by Anton Breitbart, a test batch was released in 1932, mass production began in 1933 and lasted until 1936.
The B-2 had a screen of 16 by 12 mm with a scan of 30 lines and a frequency of 12.5 frames per second. It is now such dimensions and indicators seem ridiculous, and then the device was considered incredibly modern from a technological point of view.
However, the B-2 was not a television receiver, like the usual TVs, but only a console that needed to be attached to a medium-wave radio.
KVN-49
In the late thirties - early forties in the Soviet Union produced several models of electronic TVs, partly under an American license, partly of its own design, but they did not become a mass product - prevented the Great Patriotic War. And the first truly “people’s” device was the KVN-49.
The legendary TV was developed at the Leningrad Research Institute of Television by engineers Koenigson, Warsaw and Nikolaevsky, in whose honor it received its name. This device was one of the first in the world, designed for the decomposition standard 625/50.
The KVN-49 was produced in various versions until 1967, but it is still known to the general public due to its unusual appearance (a hinged lens with water or glycerin to enlarge the image) and a popular humorous game named after him.
Ruby-102
In 1957, the era of Soviet TVs began under the legendary Rubin brand. This year began serial production of the television receiver Rubin-102, which lasted for 10 years. During this time, more than 1 million 328 thousand copies were created.
Ruby 102 could receive 12 TV channels and switch to radio waves. It also had sockets for tape recorder and pickup.
Ruby 714
But still the name "Ruby" we associate, first of all, with the television receiver Rubin-714. It was not the first Soviet color TV, but it became one of the most popular in the country - for nine years in 1976-1985, 1 million 443 thousand copies were produced, of which 172 thousand were exported.
Dawn 307
But even these huge numbers pale in comparison to the number of Dawn-307 TVs produced. After all, for the entire history of this model and very close to it 307-1 was released 8 (!) million pieces.
This black-and-white TV set began to be produced in 1975, when color TVs were already available, and, nevertheless, it still gained enormous all-Union popularity. This happened primarily due to the high reliability of the device, as well as its low price, compared to colored competitors.
B-312 record.
Another super-popular black and white TV, which was mass produced and sold in an era when color receivers were already fully produced. The B-312 record could be bought in two design options: in a wood finish with a glossy surface and with a coating of texture paper.
The TV record B-312 was produced from 1975 to the mid-eighties. People remember that it was very difficult to turn the switch to switch channels, especially if the handle was lost, and often had to use pliers or passages for this.
Horizon C-355
And the limit of dreams of the Soviet people was considered the TV Horizon C-355, produced at the Minsk radio plant since 1986. This TV set was an incredibly scarce device – people were willing to overpay for the right to buy such a device at home.
Unlike other Soviet TVs, Horizon C-355 was equipped with a Japanese Toshiba kinescope with a ray deflection angle of 90 degrees. Therefore, the TV did not require additional adjustment of the image, and was much more reliable than receivers with domestic components.
Spring 346
One of the best Ukrainian factories, which were engaged in the production of television sets, was considered a concert Spring from Dnepropetrovsk. The first television set there was released in 1960, but the heyday of the enterprise fell on the seventies-eighties. The most famous and popular product of this manufacturer was the TV Spring-346 (also known as Yantar-346).
The TV Spring-346 was produced since 1983 and became the last successful model of the Dnipropetrovsk plant - the subsequent did not gain much popularity, and in the nineties the company, like many others, could not withstand competition from foreign equipment and suspended production.
Electron C-382
Another legendary TV manufacturer in the Ukrainian SSR was the Lviv Electron factory. In the eighties, he released several popular models of color TVs throughout the Soviet Union, the most massive of which is the Electron C-382.
Electron C-382 stood out among other Soviet TVs of that era good image quality, high reliability, stylish design and low electricity consumption. Including, thanks to the success of this model, every fourth TV in the USSR in the eighties was the production of the concert "Electron".
The factory "Electron" and now produces TVs under its own brand. However, their popularity is much less than in Soviet times.
The same age
The same age is the smallest TV produced in the Soviet Union. This is a portable portable TV receiver that could be bought in assembled form, or in the form of a designer to fold the device yourself according to the instructions. The last option cost 20 rubles cheaper - 100 rubles.
The TV Rovesnik had a screen with a diagonal of 8 centimeters and weighed only 1.4 kilograms without a battery.
