Now here's the deal. I do not have the spare for it, cool though it is. My plan is to restore it and donate to the Early Television Museum in Hilliard, Ohio. I hope to have it done in time for the next convention in early May, 2025.
That's going to be a challenge...

The rebuilt CRT appears to be dead. Possibly an open cathode I can reweld? Otherwise, I'll try to use a 16LP4 or similar.



Some very bad things have happened to this set. I'm guessing from folks plugging it in and turning it on. It is fused, but not well enough apparently.

Caps vented, rectifiers melted and parts charred.
