I should have made it clear that it looked like a production set and not home made. I see why you should find my interest in this not funny because I wasn't making a joke. I ask it here because this has been in the back of my mind all these years and I am interested to know if this set does exist anywhere. I figure that the guys on here would know one way or another. I wasn't expecting a reply like yours out of left field. As to me making it myself, that makes no sense or were you making a joke that I don't find funny.

The set was in the basement on top of a cabinet that was not part of it. I asked the owner if I could plug it in. After getting the go ahead , I did and just got the color dots. The back of the set had the grill on it. I did not look inside that I can remember. I left it there and regretted it later. I should have emailed you but in circa 1979 I wouldn't expect an answer. ( that was a joke) There weren't books about collecting TV's yet and I was out hunting on my own. Another set that I had no idea what it was and left behind in a house that went into the dumpster I found out later to be a Dumont R 102 Clifton. I did rescue a 1930's Scott radio from that house for I was more of a radio collector.

So there you are.
