Agreed.
I will say that it wasn't as much as a working CT-100 might go for, but I get the impression that at any other convention I would have been bidding against more than one person. That probably had more to do with it than anything else, if there had been more interested parties I think the set would have gone for a lot more than I paid- especially when taking it's condition into account. The chassis and cabinet are very clean, flyback looks good, the CRT is a 1954 one and pegs the tester on all 3 guns even with 5 volts on the heaters. All in all I'm very pleased with the purchase, and look forward to getting it operational.
Last night I pulled the front glass off and cleaned the CRT. It looks a lot different than other 21AXP22 tubes, the phosphor has a different color to it.
