I mailed out the remotes today. I insured them for $60, and shipping was still only $6.50. Give me free admission to the TV museum and we'll call it square, lol.

There is a Zenith 600 SC, which is probably the one you'll want. I must say that I find that style remote kinda small, and cheap looking... Very un-Zenith.

I threw in a Maggie remote that I think is from the late 60s, it's a bit more attractive than the Zenith.

Since I didn't want to ship a rather tiny box (too easy to loose) I also threw in two non-60s remotes that I'm sure you'll include/exclude as warranted. (70s & 80s) Zenith remotes. They do show the progression of ultrasonic remotes.

Question for you guys outside the US... Do you get History Channel? I just want to know if I should say my remotes are simply famous, or better yet, WORLD FAMOUS

semi-related P.S.

After reading that CTC-7 thread, I was pretty angry. If some guy from France wants to spend a zillion bucks shipping something that 98% of the population would turn into a bookshelf, more power to him! It would be great to go Paris and see a roundie! I hope he didn't get scared off, because I'd love to see pics of some vintage SECAM sets.

A guy from Israel wanted to buy my Mark III on ebay. I'd much rather somebody who appreciated it bought it than some stupid kid who just put huge rims on it and drive it into the ground! Ironically, he got outbid by a guy in the next city, but Ka-sara-Ka-sara!

...and if you think I'm some PC wus, try parking your foreign car in my driveway.
