Hey all!

As Jordan said,
we swapped tv's and I am happy and pleased to meet someone as nice and friendly and helpful as he is, I had an awesome time checking out his collection and talking to him! I just wish I had a chance to hang out longer, (my wife was giving me a hard time) so I was not in the best of spirits, but the trip to his house made my trip much more pleasant! I hope that CTC-11 works out for you Jordan and I boxed the legs up and there getting sent off today! It's cool to se that us younger guys are taking on the interest in vintage electronics, at least I know with more people like us this equipment will be handled and preserved for future generations!

We had been talking about the CTC-11, and I decided I wanted to take a crack at it. He was interested in a zenith set I had, so we swapped. The CTC-11 is now in my hands, and time permitting, I will try to figure out its vertical troubles and get it back up to snuff. Aside from its troubles, I love the simplistic look of the metal cabinet. just need to get the legs back on it and it will look all the better.

Shawn is a great guy, much younger than I figured! --probably not much older than me. It was nice to meet another AK guy and fellow TV nut Hopefully I will get to meet more of you and check out your collections. So much to do, so little available time.

Enjoy the Zenith Shawn. I hope it gives you that brilliant picture for a long time.
