It's a good learning tool, but unfortunately it's not worth the money and effort you're putting into it.

Haven't felt the cap for heat yet, but I can smell something strong when the set is on. Kinda like a mix of burning rubber and warm electronics smell, but it fills the room kinda fast.

Yeah I have to agree. TVs are good to learn on but make no money. But if I was into it for the money I wouldn't be doing it. Personally I just really hate flat screen TVs and want these CRT sets to stick around in general circulation as long as possible.
