Amen to that!
I've put probably another 3 or 4 hours use on the set, and at the moment, it's about the same. Thing is, with the picture tube being pretty dim, and the possibility of finding one sort of remote, I'm wondering if trying to improve things as they are at the moment is worthwhile....especially since this works as is, and I have other sets to pay attention to
.
This set is in my home office at the moment, where brightness isn't really needed. What do you think? If I'm going to risk other serious damage, then I might as well have at it.
Meanwhile, I have my 9T246 apart again, trying to bring it a few steps closer to perfection. After that, it's my '47 DeWald, then the RCA CTC-25 console.
