And some pictures.
These Hoffman's were made in Los Angeles so it's probably not surprising that I've had seven of them over the years.
I had the radio dial from a set i parted out a couple of years ago, now I can't find it, I may have tossed it thinking I'd never need one of those again.
The CRT was flat at first but came up strong at an elevated voltage and seemed to stay there afterwards at a normal heater voltage, cutoff was good too.
I tried powering the set up, the interlock connector is broken and a cord was wired in directly but was cut off flush, I managed to fish out the ends and hook it up with alligator clips but the set is completely dead, it draws no current at all, possibly the sketchy cord is the problem, or the function switch may be dirty.
