I'll be watching this closely....as I recently got ahold of a beautiful little TV6U (with the little UHF thing underneath). It has about two thirds of a raster with absolutely no signal whatsoever. It DOES look like a bear to work with. Was even tricky to figure out getting the back off it. I did get a real SAMs photofact for it though...and just got an old "Castle" tuner subber I can use to poke IF into the thing if need be. I was able to inject audio into the volume pot...and video into one of the two shielded cables off the IF board (with that whole IF/Tuner side removed). I have not played with it much since. I need to find what the narrow vertical size is coming from so I'll have at least a clean "monitor" first. I'm pretty sure the vertical size had shrunk since I first saw a raster...so something is deffinately "going" on the poor little thing.
This is the COOLEST looking little set in my collection right now (It's sort of a dead heat with the Sony 8-301 though...which IS now working pretty good). I REALLY want to get the little TV6U to running though. It's the same size as all the little cheap chinese "Coby sets" I have on the credenza. I wanna put the TV6U right in the middle of 'em :-P
