That is something I'll have to try with my Trans-O.

BTW love your sig!

I always have loved those old Zenith TVs!

That brings back some memories from the early '70s. In the mid-to-late '50s my grandparents had gotten one exactly like the one you show for my great grandmother who lived with them in her last years. She was a smart--and a petite-but-feisty lady--one that didn't take any BS. She was nicknamed "Small" by the family. I'm told she had met me, and held me in her arms when I was a baby. I don't remember it, and she was long gone by the time I would've been able to meet her and have any memory of it.

I watched programs such as the Three Stooges on WSBK channel 38 and WLVI channel 56 on that set years later when visiting the grandfolks.

Ah for the daze of innocence....

OK folks! Sorry for the hijack! I'll behave now....
