Yeah, I have no real need to worry about UHF since my main concern is hooking an external source to channel 3 (or 4). They cleaned up nicely though - the channel selector is working great. Thanks for the advice. IIRC Packard Bell was bigger on the west coast? Another forum member right here in the Portland area has this same console. But OTOH it seems like info on this unit is hard to come by if not impossible.

Now I'm trying to study and trace the audio circuit to figure out why the radio works but the TV's audio doesn't. It used to before recapping so obviously that work is suspect but nothing obvious so far. Unfortunately the schematics that are available for this are just for the standard TV and mine is a console so the schematics are missing all the additional circuitry.

Anyone have a suggestion for replacing the plastic circular wedge piece that squeezes between the yoke and the CRT neck? Since my TV has been disassembled for months, I suspect it got misplaced and I now fear it's been thrown out. Perhaps something people would have in their spare parts bins if I post a WTB? Or can they be purchased somewhere?
