Looks like Tony D is the current high bidder on that 10BP4. I bought the 721TS that's currently in my display room from him and I'm extremely pleased with it. I thought I was hallucinating when I won that auction for a fully-recapped set with an excellent 10BP4 with a bid of only $200. The only peculiarity with that set is that the vertical hold takes longer to stabilize at warm-up than I expected, but after warm-up it's rock solid. Considering that the winning bid for the recapped 721TS I sold on eBay in '02 was over $1,000 I almost felt like I'd stolen that 721 at $200. The CRT in the one I sold 2 years ago was "pretty good for its age" but not "like new" although it produced an amazing picture. I had some serious bench hours in optimizing the alignment on that one.

Once I find time for a "break" to work on my own stuff, I'll check out why the picture rolls for about 2 minutes after it first appears on that set and probably take the time to optimize the IF response.

At the moment, I've just uncrated a Motorola 19CT1 with the factory 21" upgrade that was shipped here for a full recap. That one will keep me busy until the Dumont RA-104 gets here for its turn on the bench, then there's an RCA CTC5 scheduled after that.
