damn Doug.... GREAT work. That set has a better picture than most new ones out there. The CTC-7 chassis had a bad rep in its day, which you and modern technology solved. I remember reading old tech books on how that set had a short life span because of its vertical chassis design and the fact that ALL the wax caps would leak all over the place causing many,many problems. Techs hated it. I bet if today's caps were available then the set would have been a better performer, which you have proved with fantastic screen shots.

Wow, I'm really impressed by that picture Doug! Great work...to think some moron might have turned that into a fish tank if you hadn't come along!
 BTW Doug, couldn't help but notice your old GE & Westinghouse fans in the background. Didn't know you collected them too (although I might have guessed). Here's a picture of the Robbins & Myers fan in my living room. It required extensive restoration, but I'm happy with the finished product.

Dragnet lookin' good
Doug,
Really impressed with the picture quality on the CTC-7. Friday and Gannon never looked so good. I'm doubly impressed that your old top loader vcr is still providing those sparkling images. Steve

Doug,
Your set is amazing! That's a sharp picture! Did you end up cooking the heaters in the tube at a higher voltage, or did you simply leave it be as it was?

Thats GREAT work. Now, if only I can find a roundie or a color one of similar age.
I have the ability, its the money thats my problem, but those look like they are well worth the money to restore if you can fine one.
