I had a very similar set in the early 80's, I bought it along with a couple other older sets at a Govt surplus sale for $10.

Mine had been dropped and the back had broken off and the PC board cracked.

I soldered the PC board and glued the back mounting posts back on and it worked great!

Back then a working 2 year old Color TV with a remote for $10 was a killer deal!

It died on me a few years later and I never bothered to fix it.
