Funny you should mention Bushland Radio. I made 2 trips up there about 6 weeks ago to clean out his inventory of NOS picture tubes. It took two trips with my trailer and full size Ford Econoline van to get them all back to Milwaukee.
56 NOS crt's in all. Mostly newer types.
He must be one of the last old time independent distributors in the state. Unfortunately he dosent own a computer and has a disdane for the internet or it would be convenient to query him to see if he had an old part or two. He still has lots of NOS inventory. Pretty good supply of old flybacks and yokes too. GE vacuum tubes. He is a Channel Master Distributor. I would have made him an offer to buy all his old Merit, Thordarson and Haldorsen, but he was not in the mood to do any liquidating of inventory. He would rather sell a part here and there at todays market prices.
Very Nice fellow. His name is Roland Bushland and you can get the phone number by Googleing Bushland Radio in EauClaire Wi. IF you need a part give him a call, perhaps he might just have what you need.
Good Luck
