I ran it about 15 minutes and no smoke. Still saving a full electrical resto for a more experienced hand than me, or I'll do it myself years from now after more experience.

The eagle shot is PBS in letterbox. A little more black stripe above than below, so there's at least a centering issue. Otherwise it looked pretty great. UHF stations off the air, a cheap antenna on top of the set.

Love that intense red from the old days...


That is one great lookin' set......I need to get me a roundie.
