Oh my am I number if not value-deprived. Of non-vintage sets, I have two,
a 55" Sony Bravia LCD set and one of these clear plastic "prison" tvs (the latter cost only $8 and works fine, but unfortunately is the last year before even they went ATSC.) Vintage sets, lets see: I have two Sony FD230 Watchmans, an RCA 9T246, a Pilot TV-37, an Emerson 610, and the RCA CT-100. All but one Watchman work perfectly, that one has bad audio. That makes 8 sets total. I find it near-impossible to watch the B&W TVs for long, as the lack of color makes it hard to see things on modern color-expected shows. The CT-100, however, is perfectly watchable indeed ... I have been watching one whole baseball or football game a week on it. Wanted Holy Grails: Sony KV-7010U with good CRT and flyback and 1936 5" British set. |

Does such an animal exist? That would be quite a cool set to have both a 5" picture tube (would it be picture valve ?) and a 405/240 selector switch. I know Marconi and HMV both made 5" sets but not until 1938.
Sorry to be a bit off topic here.

6 CRT sets - an RCA CTC-16 roundy, my PortaColor, a Setchell Carlson 21" BW, an Emerson 17" BW portable, a 7" Tele-Tone, and an RCA 730TS. While it doesn't have a CRT yet, I also have my GE PC-A I'm building.
Funny, I have more Oscilloscopes than TVs - 13 in all.
