Interesting. I would love to find my Philco Townhouse TV a new home with someone who could better restore the TV than I can because its got issues with it that I can't really repair myself because I've never done those kinds of repairs before, like the fact that the orginal picture tube in it has failing Aquadag and I don't have any experience with redoing the aquadag coating on a picture tube and also the vertical is messed up on it because instead of running at 60 Hz. its running at 30 Hz. which is causing a doubled picture.
