[Philco123]

Hello all.

I am a new member to this informative website and new to the hobby of vintage color TV collecting and restoration. The exchange of technical tips and troubleshooting methods is very helpful.

I recently acquired a 1955 (possibly 1956) Philco Color TV on Craigslist. After doing a little research, it looks like there were only 500 of these units produced. It is missing a few knobs, but the cabinet is in overall great shape and the original 21axp22 hasn't gone to air. The TV will arrive soon and I hope the CRT tests good. In the interim, I thought I would inquire whether anyone has experience with the Philco 123 chassis or any pointers/tips to pass on as I start the restoration process.

Appreciate any insight you all can pass on.

Thanks. Jeff in Springfield, VA
