I'm still alive and my back is OK

I remembered the trick to removing the CRT from the front. Turned out that all the rubber CRT mounts had rotted away and it was really loose. Only the yoke was holding it in place.



Now I see why the fine tuning knob felt weird - the rubber belt had hardened.


It's so nice when all the parts and knobs are there


Genuine RCA picture tube. Initial dead on my B&K 440 - just touching the "good" region after an hour @ 6.3 vac. That's about average for all by 10BP4s.


Control panel is in decent condition.


Nice little service port underneath revealed a pristine chassis. No obvious signs of any repair attempts.


Dunno when I'll get around to this set. I've already got enough projects for the next two years
