I will get some pictures cropped & chopped to fit the vintage videokarma servers in the coming days as there's still some remaining work to be done on the chassis. Right now it looks like some video is making its way thru the sync sep and giving things the wiggles and I also have some horizontal shading of the highlights that need to be worked out, as of this post I have not verified which side of the video out amp this is on.
So for the moment things are going to stay on an RF distribution as this gives me the flexibility to run my other vintage sets without modifications. I have an early 80's Panasonic CT-1110D portable, a 70's vintage Philco B&W and Sony Watchman FD-40A plus one of those 16:9 CRT Panasonic CT34WX54 sets however that one normally runs on the Betacam inputs.
When I did have the Magnavox on composite the detail was a trife better overall so I will revisit the video input in the near future however it was more important to bring everything back to factory stock again both for technical and historical aspects as this set has been in the family since new. We were not the couch potatoes so much but shows like Dallas, this music thing in the late 70's and the seemingly endless football games were never missed and the TV got its use along with the stereo which was almost a constant growing up.
