Salvaged this really nice Panasonic Colorpilot Color TV on the weekend. It was manufactured September 1980. The Model is PC-2000 and the Chassis is NMX-L21. I don't see these old tv's too often around here, so i decided to grab it. Some jackass cut the power cord
they had cut it right at the tip of the plastic moulding the old cord ran through, so I ended up having to make a new cord and run it through the square opening at the rear. After that, it powered up without a problem
I really like the lighted dials as well. There's a couple of things I'm trying to work out. For instance I can't seem to adjust the black level, the brightness even when turned down seems to produce a over gray color and makes the image/video seem washed out. The other thing is the pull knob is very stiff to pull out and push in?
