Mid 1980s Sylvania Superset

Went to the Habitat the other day, and I had to turn away, but then the think twice thinking came to mind, so I had to pick it up, due to the fact that it had the remote with it and was only $5 as they are selling TVs 2 for $5, and the main fact that my mother had bought one of these non remote (Volume on/off knob version) back in 1984 or 85.. Had the TV up till 1993 when the tuner gave out.. I've also got the 25 inch version with it's remote in storage also, It's got tuner problems also.. The channel goes out and I have to change the channel to get the channel again... This one had no sound it first, just slight crackle here and there, but after a few minutes of being on, it fully came back.. Must be electrolytics reforming in the sound amp.. Tuners in these things are that great... It's not able to pick up signal from the modulators all that great.. Where as any other TV and my Sony watchman picks up signal in that location crystal clear.. The only reason I really like these sets, is due to the fact growing up and having one..
