Just saw this set on my local craigslist.Looks like a good deal, but don't have the funds to pick it up. Anybody else here from VK locally that might be interested?

Great set.
The Grundig "CUC" chassis are reliable and have an excellent video quality.

Wow, that's a neat looking tv. I'm a big Grundig fan and would love to have that.

Thanks Komet! These sets were not available on the US market, only in Europe. Am i correct?

I'd love to have it too! But these good deals always come at a bad time for me....

Well, things are looking up! Freed up some cash and i'll be taking a look at the set tomorrow morning!

Well, it's finally home!

Except for a small crack on the back cover, it's in excellent shape.The original owner misplaced the euro av patch cord but said he would call me if he finds it. I wonder if they sell replacements here.

For me,was it worth $45? I think so....

Here are a couple of cable sources:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/360431809172

I am not affiliated with either of them.

I have two Grundigs. They're both identical, strictly NTSC.
Have also have a few multi-standard sets, I picked though the years. It's kind of strange to see Cyrillic and Arabic on screen displays.
What a hobby!

As far as i can tell, this set doesn't have OSD. It doesn't even mention it in the user manual.No date of manufacture either....

I ordered the euro av adapter off of ebay and should be next week.....
