Cool!....Thanks Jr for the two threads.

I'm still at work where the thing showed up via UPS yesterday.....So I had briefly messed with it, but it hasn't come home yet to where I have a "known good" TV channel (my own in-house)...and a pattern generator.

SEEMS to act like if it got any signal at all, it would jump to life. I'm just concerned that I don't even have snow or "static" in the audio but REALLY faint. Almost like I'm gonna find no tuner at all when I get it home. This set is perfect and in completely unmolested condition...with it's little piggyback AC power pack. I think at some point it stopped working and nobody ever looked at it. Also got the 12V car cord for it (proprietary with a box inline)...and a REALLY tired looking leather kinda case that looks like a chinese take-out box that it came in.

REALLY like this set...and DO want this one to be more than just a shelf queen. I am deffinately going to be looking for a real SAMs for this one.
