Hello from Rhode Island

[Retro in RI]

Hi all. Just signed up, though I've been lurking for a few days. Great site, lots of good info.

Cool to see so many other like minded peolple.

Started "collecting" tvs while on a quest for a knob tuned set last year. I needed one to help me in my home transformation, that is I'm making my home a retro house, equipped as I remember houses being in the blue collar 1970's that I grew up in. Rotary phones, knob tunes tvs, record players, basically any appliance with wood grain, wall paint colors, fabrics and some furniture too. Far out : )

I also collect vintage muscle bikes and I've got a couple muscle cars as well. I do all my own work on them as well as my house but have never delved into electronics, so I may have more than a few questions or be looking for a talented old school repair guy reasonably close to me.
