Hello Gentlemen,
I will piggy back on this popular thread to wish a Very Happy New Year! to all friends and acquaintances reunited by our common interest for vintage televisions and the endeavours to keep their original CRTs still operational in the 21st Century.
To all of you who hope/plan to have a CRT rebuilt in 2012, be assured that RACS is alive, well and kicking. After a very busy Nov/Dec season finishing another big partial order for the French railway, business will restart briskly in January after a well-earned Christmas season rest & factory close.
I will get on the horn with them next week and provide a full update here.
Friends John Folsom Jr, John Y. and Bob G. are once again opening exciting venues on the 15G rebuild project which may also pave the road to solving similar issues with 21 inch roundie color CRTs also using glass to metal interfaces.
The Color Wars documentary project for which we had the pleasure and honor of interviewing many of you at ETF 2011 is well on its way to entire completion and we hope a US TV Channel will be interested at MIP-DOC 2012, the international documentary trade show, Cannes, France, March 2012.
Let me finish this quick update by asking all to spare a moment in memory of friend and former VK member Eckhard Etzold from Germany who died last year one year day to day in this very night of the New Year.
Best Regards
jhalphen
Paris/France
