Can anybody email me and let me know if they can mail or email me a copy of all the Sams paperwork for a ctc-10W chassis, with remote control? I can pay your expense of printing and mailing etc. Thanks!
Well the good news (I guess) is that it looks like it was a simple mechanical failure that took this set out of commission. One of the remote control drive gears for the tuner is snapped in half, the gear stayed there but would have just spun around the axle with no channel changing. Anybody got a spare one of these laying around? It's a nylon gear with a slotted axle hole and spring retainer, 34 teeth, one that goes on end of the shafts? I'll try epoxying it anyway and see what luck I have, would probably hold it. Tuner seems pretty stiff but not sure how smooth this one is supposed to be, will have to open her up and check the insides. If all else fails I can always run it on channel 3, right? ; )
Other than that, flyback looks good, there's a big black disk thing under the chassis that has a big hunk blown out of it (thermistor or something? dunno yet). Guess I'll test tubes till I can get the paperwork....thanks!....Frenchy
