Still on the fence with this one , while it's cute as a bug's ear and better than 50 years old , I'm not sure I'd want to put a ton of capacitors and hours into something that's not really my thing (I'm way more vacuum tube than solid state) .....
I don't know how willing you would be to ship this thing, But I would be interested in this TV, as I am kind of interested in both tube and early solid state electronics (radios and TVs) and it would be a nice addition to my small collection of vintage TVs I already have.
