The Premium Technologies Television is a widescreen TV set. It is a piece of furniture that shows broadcasts and plays VHS tapes.

The set needs electricity from the grid or a generator. Its main cost is weight, so it is moved only to a base that has power.

The set is found in attics, department stores, halls and electronics stores. The Electrician is the best occupation for communications. It starts with the most Electrical skill. The Engineer also starts with some Electrical skill.

Using


The television must be connected to power to work. That means the mains grid in the early days, or a generator later.

The set tunes a very wide band, from 0.2 to 1000 MHz. It also plays VHS tapes.

Its speaker carries about fifteen tiles. That is louder than the ValuTech Television at about twelve tiles and the Antique Television at about ten.

Research Craft on the television teaches Make Makeshift Radio.

Dismantle Electronic Device with a screwdriver breaks it down into Scrap Electronics. Dismantling a placed set also gives a little Electrical experience.

Notes


  • The set needs grid power or a generator to run.
  • A stock of VHS tapes gives it something to play at any hour.
  • Research Craft on it teaches the Makeshift Radio recipe.
  • The set is heavy, so it is worth moving only to a powered base.
