I wonder what the daily production numbers were like in a smaller operation like that, and what methods of error-proofing were done? I'd think that in a lower-tech operation, with a lot of lower-skilled turnover, you'd have all sorts of problems with misconnections and incorrect tubes installed. Most of these would be caught before they left the plant, but it had to keep the higher-skilled test/repair guys busy!

Thanks for the many photos Doug, not everyone does the YouTube thing. Always enjoy the environment surrounding the find.

Thanks Chris,

I must say, I do enjoy documenting these TV's via pictures with a written description more than I do making videos. There is something about pictures that in some ways better tell the story. Maybe it's because one can study a picture more so than a video. That's just me though.
