Would you like a super nice 1955 (ish) 21" Magnavox floor model? Beautiful original survivor. It got put to the side a few years ago after the flyback melted down. It has a new fly, but I get an awful arc coming off of the HV rectifier lead and going to the body of the fly. I just never got around to investigating it. I had to cut and solder the lead as the replacement fly had no rectifier lead, so that joint may be causing the problem. I guess realistically Ellington is a LONG way from VA for bothering with a TV. I can't find anyone around here to swap with or donate to. I guess a lot of people here are too strapped for cash to be blowing money on restoration projects!
