My grandmother used to give me some cool radios she'd find at garage sales. But my uncle and his father-in-law were both into radio and TV repair. Back in '71 when I was about 15 they were cleaning out their basements on two different occasions and I was invited to take anything I wanted. I took a friend with me and we were both just in hog heaven. As my uncle's father-in-law repaired radios and TV's professionally in the 50's and 60's I remember a LARGE number of old color sets sitting around in HIS basement (like these CTC-11's). But we both went for the radios and related parts as they were more within our (limited) scope of repair ability at the time.
