Asset Overview

The Neptun is a mains-powered television set designed for reception of television programmes, equipped with the differential method of audio reception and a black-and-white 35 MK 1 CRT with a screen diagonal of 35 cm. In terms of the electrical system, it is a heterodyne with 16 vacuum tubes and 4 diodes. The device design was developed by the design team of the Technical Development Resource of the Gdańskie Zakłady Radiowe: inż. Krupa, inż. Kula, inż. Tadeusz Pietrzykowski, inż. Muszyński, inż. Chmielewski, and inż. Z. Witczak. According to information presented in an internal paper of the enterprise of 1958, the Neptun television receiver was intended as an upgraded version of the Belweder TV set. Neptun TV sets originated as part of the so-called ‘cosmic series”, where models were named after celestial bodies: Helios, Jowisz, Saturn or Uran.
