I also can testify that good media publicity about your collection works! I got on the 6 0 clock news recently for collecting old TV's from the recycling days. Just got a call at the radio station from someone who wants to give me another set. Also had a newspaper feature article about me and got responses to that too. Being in the radio business myself I am always on the lookout for interesting people to interview as on-air guests, so if you can make some connections in TV/Radio/Newspapers you may be able to get publicity about a hobby that not too many people engage in.
I have been also salvaging TV's from the trash for the past 10 years and have noticed the age of the sets in the solid waste stream keeps getting newer. Tube sets in the trash are getting rarer and rarer...so it is probably good to get them now, while they are still around.
