If I decided to part with this unit , I know it would be preferable to keep it complete. What are these things worth? Whole or parts??

It's something not being properly filtered from the video stage, that's my guess. Old capacitors and an out-of-spec tube are probably the culprit, but I'm not a TV repairman either. Use the VCR and one of those godawful integrateds (like the one you had on top of it

) with some of those troublesome speakers you pile up

until you can figure it out.
If you ever want a SMALL TV (A REAL ONE) I have a National Panasonic AN609D 7" you can figure out. Robust CRT but needs caps and a diode or two in the PS (overvoltage to the heaters). It's an Instant On set so I could NOT let it run warm all the time like that, but it had a great picture and it's bright blue, as Matsushita was so famous for never making a dull set.
Send money, guns and lawyers and we'll smuggle it into Diefendorfer's garage without a further charge. (SP sorry I wish Bush was the other half of Anheuser some daze)..
PS somebody tell me if ~~~THIS~~~ National has anything go to with the Panasonic namesake?
