RCA CTC4: the barberized Seville

[Electronic M]

Last weekend I visited Nick to get that Zenith poster, and exchange a couple more items, and he mentioned that he had a CTC4 he wanted to sell.

To make a long story short I ended up buying it for slightly more than 400$.
This I believe is the Seville model minus the legs.

Whom ever owned it before Nick did not take good care of it.
All the tubes (aside from the CRT), the speaker, the back, the legs, the channel selector knob, and possibly other stuff are all missing.

The 21AXP22 has the PNGOD (Purple Neck Glow Of Death) so it seems that I'm going to have to use a 21FJP until I come upon sufficient luck and or resources to bring a good 21AXP22 into my possession.



A nice 21FJP22 with the strongest emission of any of my roundys came with the set so I have a strong jug to put in for the time being.

One of the IF cans got knocked off the board, but miraculously the board appears to be just fine.

I'm going to go down in a few minutes and start examining the set in day light (read pulling the chassis and examining it).

Here is a link to some pictures of it...

I've clearly got my work cut out for me, but still I can't suppress that "Woo Hoo! I finally have got a CTC4!" feeling.
