Last I dealt with anything like that was late 80's and same then as to
get equipment for SECAM then was so expensive for them. Even from
French manufacturers.

I think there were only two manufacturers of true SECAM mixers. Thomson
and Cox. Thomson made a killing in Russia as they decided to go SECAM
for some strange reason (probably something to do with arms trading no
doubt)

Probably also not American and not British, politics as well.

and Mike Cox would always go where no one else would dare to
tread.

Until late 80's when it[1] became part of Abekas Video Systems, which in
turn was part of Carlton Communications another Micheal, Micheal Green this
time.

[1] Cox Electronics his company.
