Has been a little slow on VK...I've been going to ARF regularly (for the first time in ~3-4 years) recently...They are slower than VK and some TV things I like here the guys there are not interested in, but it does help fill the gap.

I need to post more of the stuff I do...I did so much repair work in the months leading up to the ETF, and was too busy to post much of it. The week since has been busy, I finally fixed a danish mod CTC25 for a friend to make room for ETF sets and got ~50% of my ETF haul into the basement before running out of energy and back stamina...The weekend was hell too...I need another vacation.

I'm currently changing the crossover capacitors on a 1963 Motorola 3-channel console stereo. (The radio sounds great, but record changer isn't working) I'm also working on a 1963 Philco 'Townhouse' 19" b/w tv, but I'm waiting on some capacitors, and I wasn't going to post about it until I got it going. It's one of the few Philcos I've seen from that era that's not using a hot chassis.

Convention burnout. I haven't had one night's interrupted sleep since two weeks before the convention. Can't shut my damn brain off. I keep coming up with ideas and things I need to get done.

Plus Kutztown was last weekend, so you've got basically a good half of the active posting members of here and ARF that are pretty tired, and reorganizing/unloading their stuff.

That, and this money from the sale of my car coupled with my ETF auction proceeds is burning a hole in my pocket. Keep looking for stuff to buy and coming up dry. Considering where I've been in my life, that's not the worst thing

I haven't done much TV stuff lately but I've been working fixing up my Jukebox and getting a Remote Selector working.
