Yes, it appears the same otherwise and it also has lighted channel indicators, orange neon like a Sylvania would.

In the 30+ years of having the KV1210, its only taken occasional replacement of capacitors, transistors and diodes. I initially had to buy and install a new CRT for it, that was about $100 dealer cost in 1983.

Just for fun I plugged it in this morning and it came right on, normal slight-green tinted snow and healthy audio noise, with the usual dirty control issues of course. I got a good picture after connecting a converter box and adjustment of color controls, it looks like the CRT is GOOD!

Post next will be a picture.Attachment 188883
