GREAT Score! Glad to see another piece of TV history bein' saved... This is, at once, the greatest era in human history-And the WORST...Historians in the future will no doubt marvel at the primitive items we've produced- But will fuss & cuss LOUDLY that virtually None of it has been saved. Imagine having a WORKING TK-41/CT-100 camera chain 75, 100 years from now..

I don't see anywhere in this thread where anything has been saved....

Those monitors do look like they would be neat to have....If Physicist sneaks into the abandoned nuke power plant that pic is from, saves both those monitors and wants to unload the one that glows in the dark more I might be interested.

If I remember correctly, that nuclear power plant is located in one of the Carolinas. Interestingly enough, it never went online, but was decommissioned before the built was finished. In other words, all the stuff in there, including the monitor, is absolutely mint (aside from sitting around for some 25 odd years). The government works in mysterious ways, I guess...
Either way, the ownership of the plant and the equipment is, at best, unclear, so going in there and taking stuff is most likely considered theft. What a shame
