My new CTC-16!

It appears that it is raining televisions on me while I'm in Michigan. I got this set today from a local collector for $35. It does need work, but it makes a raster and shows potential. The CRT is a Colorama from December 1968 which tests good. I'll be picking this set up in a couple of days (it was raining today) and there will be plenty of pictures.

I hope you don't regret selling a CTC20! The CTC16X was a great set. With the original Hi-Lite CRT, the picture was the best in the business.

That has the same dial as my Grandfather's set.

Let me know if you ever want to sell it. I'm in Michigan, too

IIRC, I think that set is a "Vista-Color," my aunt and uncle had one that looked like that down to the knobs.
