We’re good. Things got a bit out of joint but we found our way back. Thanks for the kind words.

I know what you mean about learning B&W TV alignment. It almost more art than science. Specific tube makes can matter and many passive components matter more than you think they should. A good sweep generator with markers helps a lot but I think practice helps more. I keep a Motorola 9VT1 running. Those early sets teach you a lot. Mainly patience and humility but eventually your skills improve.

On February 1 in Farmington, MI will be the annual Winter Vintage Electronics Expo of the Michigan Antique Radio Club. There will be a ton of radio deals and usually a fair number of vintage TVs that need attention. I’m not sure what part of Northern Indiana you live but if you have a few sets to sell, looking for test equipment or are interested in buying something to work on, it’s a good show. I’ll probably share a table with someone (saves a few bucks) let me know if you are interested.
