I got a free CTC-10C set in 1975 that had a broken CYP22 kine. I had an FBP22 in my garage that I installed in this set. It works.

Other than a few tubes, the ONLY problem I've seen with my 10 is bad soldering between the chassis ground stakes and the PC boards. The horizontal oscillator board could be tapped with a pencil eraser and the screen image would lose horizontal lock.

I also replaced those neon lamps when one of them broke a lead.

My set has seen no tube replacements since 1979, and is still running just fine on its OEM capacitors.
