Picked up the CTC-5
I went out to pick up the ctc-5 last friday evening. Im amazed that the set works as well as it does with ALL original wax paper lytics. Color is good and balances on good flesh tones at mid range. Fine tuner needs work as the dial cord slips. Will need to be recapped to get the vertical just right. But for an all original set, it produces a good picture. The 21AXP22 is good too. The original owners "G. Goetz" were from Park Ridge, IL which is a north suburb of chicago. Apparently the TV was still in use as late as 1971. Had a rebuilt RCA crt installed in 1959. Its always nice to have those repair tags inside the sets. Without those, the history is lost.
