ok. thanks. Do you own this t.v? For now just cleaning away the dust how do you recomend i do that much?

Yes, that's my TV. I got it going shortly after I picked it up on eBay about a year ago. As long as you're careful, just a rag dampened with a bit of soap and water will get the dust off he chassis. Careful with the tubes, as the type numbers rub off easily. You don't wanna get them mixed up.

Thanks. Its a really nice t.v. looks beauitiful. If I have any questions ill be sure to send you a message thanks. They don't make them like they used to...

Thank you, and you're right of course, they haven't made TVs with real personality in a long time.

IF you decide to tackle it, you definitely came to the right place. There's a wealth of info about vintage TV available on this site and lots of knowledgeable folks with lots of experience to draw from.

If you go to thrift stores often, you will probably find an RF modulator there. I see, and buy, them often.

If you have an old VCR, you can possibly use it for your modulator. Not sure about playing the DVD's, though, with that nasty copyguard on them...
