Well it seems to work. I would like to see the set in person though. The focus looks a little off. I think it is good somebody is attempting the flybacks. We all have sets that will need a new one. I am cheering for the man. He is taking a lot of heat right now. His attempts are looking better though. His product got one set working so far.

Yes, this is the same person. I remember his eBay ID from when he had the ugly CTC flyback up for sale.
Unfortunately, I'm going to be on vacation around the time this auction ends, otherwise I'd be tempted find out how reasonable his reserve is and bid on the set. If he had a reasonable enough reserve, it would be worth getting just to evaluate the results first hand. Joe

I did purchase the CTC-4 flyback from ebay just to have a spare one.
I have a ctc-4 set in working condition. I think I will try the flyback when received and let the world know if it works. I sure hope it is not going to kill my set.

The flyback on a black and white like this one would be easier to attempt a rewinding of, and more forgiving of tolerances, plus black and white ones don't run so close to their breking point like color ones do. Nobody has tried one of this guy's CTC4 ones yet? I don't know if these things are any good or not but you gotta give the guy credit for trying it, and on this lowly little portable black and white no less! 8 () Frenchy

Picture quality may be very good, Seller explained quality , and difficulties trying to photo CRT working. I'm going try to contact him about set if no one meets his reserve. I've always wanted a portable TV that's small.

Flyback
Yeh, I give him an A for effort, but, I still worry... And even the bw one looks a little sloppy.
John Folsom has his first tried color flyback, and it doesn't physically fit the core, and wires are all over the place. Not neat. I hope he can improve his work. Rarer flybacks need a chance. One day, they'll run out like some picture tubes. When is anyone gonna start re-making gems like 3KP4, etc...?????   Rough quote: "I may be growing older, but, I refuse to grow up."

According to him--- now all wire connections correctly placed for rapid install, fitting directly to original core or new core w/same dimensions as original core
Newer one looks a lot cleaner, similiar to RCA manufactured part in dimensions and appearance.

The ctc-4 flyback so far made it to the custom but then got stuck there. Hard to explain what it really is. I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer for results
