Memo to self. Join TV/AA after you pick up the set Saturday. No more N-gauge trains either.
Owner will help lift it to the pickup truck and then to the ballpark for storage. It will join my Dumont 103, RCA Director, Philco 50T1443, CTC-11 (someone come and get this cheap) and one of those stilleto legged Orthophonic hi-fi sets. And my TK-31 on the bench getting some updating. This is the cosmetic one. Shell only. Modern guts. Don't tell management I have this stash in my shop.
My favorite part is having the engineers from the $8 million dollar HD tv truck knock on my door to see what I brought home lately. A few years ago I gave an engineer a pedestrian set and it rode back to Atlanta on the Turner Sports B-unit.
I'm encouraged by the RF snow and the RF side of the split being ok. Just the vertical to look at. Will clean, DeOx and test tubes first as this thing is trying to work. Caps after. I can't do any more damage. Jr...no remote on this set that I can see. Economy version. Thanks for the link to the brochure.
Stay tuned.
