That's a Solent 23cm analogue FM ATV transmitter.

Capable of 1w or a bit more with tweaking. Free running VCO at 23cm but synthesizers were available, the original multi-channel using a CB radio sysnth chip and the other Worthing offering was based on a Plessey SP5055 and gave a single channel from a xtal multiplied by 256.

Originally offered as a kit by G8CMQ (?) in the 80s, it was taken on by the Worthing ATV Repeater group so it's also known as a 'Worthing'

Your PCB may be home made as most I saw were tinned, not bare copper

Looks like someone as added a PA. The usual method was to add a Mitsubishi M57762 brick and that could give 18 to 20w out.

If it has a M57762 its worth hanging on to as it can produce 4w of DATV with shoulders more than -40 dBc.

The small box may be a preamp for 23cm but I don't recognise it.

If any use to you there is a Solent schematic in the BATC Wiki.

The preamp looks familiar to something I knocked up for my Solent back in the day will look when I get home and see if I have any info.
