Value ? For me next to nothing unless it were a top-o-line
ultra modern set AND ran perfectly or had known minor problem.
Connection problems were in the CTC175, 176, 177, 185, 186, & 187.
No big deal, just need a steady hand & small iron that gets hot.They
came out abt 92 or 93 & made for quite a few years.
Aging not much of an issue if kept properly. Electrolytics may
suffer some but again usually no big deal.
Best RCA of that era was the CTC169. Could be tough to work on
but they were top line sets with an awesome pix. Never saw a bad
CRT in one.
