Hi From NC

Hi,

I am from NC and love vintage audio as well as televisions. I have been a electronics tech for 18 years but never worked on vintage consumer electronics and want to get into that as a hobby. I am currently building an audio system from vintage systems bought at thrifts and yard sales. I would like to get into TVs next and thought this would be the place to be to get some information.

Hopefully I can learn some and maybe have some input as well.

Thank yall!

Welcome! Lots of old repairmen here and a few latter day tube TV gurus too so there is plenty of brains to pick.

It is usually best to start with a tube radio restoration or two before tackling a TV.

Thanks for the advice. I have built tons of radios but never restored them.
