Olympic tv922L
Anyone hava an extra Sams 67-15??
I picked up a nice Olympic TV922l last week, and have had no luck finding anything on the set, I suspect its a 630 clone frome 47-48 thanks.

It's not a 630 clone but probably a Tele-Tone based on that knob layout.

Retraction, maybe not a Tele-tone, I was trying to remember where I'd seen that knob layout before and it was on my Olympic!
The 7" Tele-Tone has a similar layout but obviously this isn't an Electrostatic set. Maybe it is a reworked 630. My Olympic has a chassis similar to an RCA type but not quite like any other set I've seen either. The only Sams I have is an 85-10 for an Olympic TV-947, 949, 950 same knob layout but I don't know how close the chassis is. Does your chassis look anything like this?

Ok here is what I have so far, after removing the chassis, the only noticable repairs were replacing a few tubes, nothing later than 1952. a good sign? after looking at the sams, it may be that someone recaped the set in that time frame as it has alot of "BEES"
 the sams clearly shows traditional paper styles. I noticed an RCA connector on the side of the chassis, not accessable unless you pull the chassis. my bet is signal injection point? also there is a switch on the back. not listed in the service notes.

I'm working on an Olympic now, model unknown but the chassis looks the same.
The switch on the back is a Local/Fringe selector. Are you sure that's an RCA connector? Mine has a hole on the side but it's just the other end of the Horizontal Frequency coil, a lot of RCA's have it too. I think this is a modified (Muntzed?) version of an RCA 721, I have a Tele-Tone that has a very similar chassis but the knobs on the front are laid out in the RCA style of straight up and down.

Well, had some time last night so I decided to pull the crt and check some tubes, only 13 out of the 23 were bad or questionable.
 so now its time to do some chassis cleaning and tube searching from the stash. now for the cap order. keep you posted.
