CT-100 update.
Murray's CT-100 was delivered to my house about two weeks ago. After the long trip from Ohio it still worked, but as stated in the eBay listing, it did not have color. Among other things it had a shorted hue control trimmer cap and I was able to find a close replacement for it from Ocean State Electronics. It took a bit of doing but I got it installed. I don't think that RCA figured that one of these would ever need to be removed. The color now works. The set however is now being fully recapped. It still had all the original electrolytics in it along with most of the paper caps. All the major parts including the vertical convergence transformer seem good (knock on wood). It is nice to work on an RCA where the horizontal actually runs at the right frequency!
I will post pictures after I get it recapped.
