The Broadcast Engineering Conservation Group
Welcome to the Broadcast Engineering Conservation Group website.
We are a group of people who rescue and conserve our UK television history, focusing on the engineering aspects.
We have collected a large amount of equipment over the years and we aim to use this to present television history to the public by various means.
Please see our Projects Page for details of our current activities.

Our latest project is the restoration of ABC TV’s “Unit 5”. This was one of three new vehicles ordered by ABC in the mid-sixties. It passed to Thames and then to Sony before being converted into a domestic vehicle. Please see the Project Page for further information.
Hello, thanks for looking! We’ve started to upload some details of the projects that we have been involved in, Please see the Projects page for further details.

The Broadcast Engineering Conservation Group is a small association of qualified, experienced and motivated professionals dedicated to the survival and interpretation of television history.
Whilst privately funded, this has not been a bar to achieving many successes in this field.
Over several decades a considerable amount of money and time has been invested in diverse projects, specifically in the field of outside broadcast technology.
Promoting and demonstrating vintage television remains a core value to the group.
