Four. I just got into this last year and my area isn't exactly an old TV breeding ground. I used to have more but I took in a lot of later-model junk as well.
1. 1988 Zenith model SE5535G console with the 9-516 main module that is in regular use. The original remote was cracked and hardly any of the buttons worked; I just dug out my NOS 1981 Zenith remote and found out that it works with this set. 2. 1978 RCA XL-100 19" set. It's awaiting repairs for a vertical problem that is common to the CTC88. 3. 1973 Zenith Chromacolor 25" console with the 25DC56 chassis and Space Command 500. I'm still waiting to get ahead enough to get good equipment to replace the white safety caps. Ran when last started. 4. 1971 Admiral K20 chassis 25" console. No idea of its health but it's a keeper. |

I'm up to 20, not counting my relatively new flat screen that I use every day. Of those 20, 15 of them are on display in my house, the other 5 are in the garage/workshop.

It will take me some effort to count my "collected" TV sets (as opposed to modern, mostly flat-panel sets). I will post a total when I am able to count them.

TVs + radios
More than 300 and radios in the minority.

I'm counting somewhere around 52 or so? That means, wow, I've cut the collection pretty much in half! I'm aiming on getting it down to around a dozen. Radios had gotten into the 500-600 range at one point, but I've cut them way down as well.

Last count: radios (including collectible-ish SS sets) ~140.
TVs ~30 Add to that audio equipment, and a host of other junk.

Stereos, table radios (shortwave, etc.), multiband portable radios, tape decks, one lone 1939 console, one turntable, various types of televisions (two used as monitors) and lots and lots of computers old and new.

Come to Buffalo. I can find you enough sets to fill a box truck.

Yeah, my collection seems to be getting larger as time goes on as well. The problem is that I like combo color sets.
