A really big Shoo
Check out this RCA tuner.
I'm thinking if I installed this in a set it should pull in the BIG programs |

If I'm correct, that tuner is out of a CT-100

I have been told this tuner is the same as a CT-100 but this particular one was NOS and came with it's original box and mounting accessories.
The paperwork that came with it lists several models of B&W sets that it fits but no mention of the CT-100, it may pre-date that set by a year or so. |

Is there a number stamped on the tuner beginning with the letters "KRK"?

Wadeaminit! Isn't that a remote starter for a 52 Studebaker? It looks like the large front gear that engages the flywheel is worn smooth.

On the paper label attached to the tuner it says "Kit KRK25" |

I'm pretty sure that the KRK-12 is the CT-100 tuner. The kit may be a retrofit for some VHF only sets to receive UHF, as that tuner should have interchangeable tunable UHF strips.
Gotta love the "CLUNK, CLUNK" of that big monster!

The KRK-12 number sounds right for 1954, when the CT100 was manufactured.

Tuner
That's great! now all i need is a cabinet, back, chassis, CRT, knobs...
Hmm, who was it that built their CT-100 that way? I bought this thing off eBay because I thought it looked like a CT-100 channel selector. It differs slightly in style from the ones I've seen. I like the way the center section turns seperately from the outer ring, 12 VHF channels and I think 5 UHF. I think there are some UHF number strips in the kit. It might be interesting to see if it could be wired into a chassis and see how it works. |
