Nice find. That set deserves to be saved, if at all possible. I'm undertaking the restoration of a CTC4 as well. You can definitely install a 21FJP22/FBP22 in this set.

What did you with the EHT? The 21AXP22 needs 19.5 KV, the 21FJP22 needs 25 KV.

Honestly, I have no idea. I didn't install this tube - it was done by the previous owner. I was told that he changed it out in 1970 and that it worked fine for years. So, I don't know if he changed the circuit any or what else he did. I have yet to see this set run. It needs lots of caps.

LOL I wish I had a dollar for every lecture I've had to listen to! I'd be rich! BTW that still is a nice set, I see the potential. Please keep us updated, it will be very interesting to watch this project!:thmbsp:

Does anyone want this CTC4 set or need anything off of it? I have not done a thing to it since I got it and I think it's going to take someone with better restoration skills than I to bring it back to life. I'll just hold out for a roundie in better condition. So, if anyone wants this, let me know. It didn't cost my anything and I don't want anything for it. I just hope someone winds up with it that can use it for something.

I'd take it if I had a way to get it here, but I don't know if I can swing it.

The CTC-4 provides 25 KV to the CRT.
Great find. Please keep us updated!
