So Sears stopped selling "Sears" TVs and just sold name brands without any rebadging? Actually growing up I don't recall ever seeing store brand TVs like JCP or Sears unless they were pretty old, but by the time I came around CRT TVs were on the way out. When did stores in general stop selling sets with their name on them?

Also If all goes well I will hopefully have the CRT tester attatchment for this set Friday, or if my buddy lets me I'll just bring the whole set to his house and test it in my station wagon. If the CRT is bad I don't know what to do with this set. I don't want to take it to the scrap yard but my family hates all the old sets hidden around the house.. Also why I bug so many people on here with repair questions

The forum members and myself never thought that you were that young.
I started very young as well. 60+ years ago.
If the CRT is good, maybe your buddy will take it in.
