I picked up the CTC-7B the weekend before last (thanks Robert). The CRT emission came up after a restoration on my Beltron. I pulled the chassis to find the remnants of a mouse nest in the bottom. Fortunately they didn't seem to disturb any of the transformers or coils. They just chewed the insulation off of a few wires. I checked continuity on the vertical output transformer and the filter choke and they seem to be OK. The flyback checks out so I think the set is restorable. About 3/4 of the tubes are missing but that's no big deal. I will put this set in the queue for restoration after a few radios.
