  Looking at Poole&Molloy (Radio and Television

 sets from nominally different manufactures contain the same chassis... 
I know.  Sometimes there only seem to be about two or three "current"
models (plus variations for tube size).

LOL!  Serves you right!

  Converting a 405 line set to a (presumably 625 line)
monitor is not the
 most trivial job, I wouldn't have thought. Don't tell me it was a live
 chassis set as well.... 
No, thankfully it wasn't.  I don't recall having to do much to change the
frequencies, though.
