My new project. Dumont Television

[mkoser]

By luck, I ended up meeting a guy that has many many tube radios and a few tube tv's.

I bought one tv set from him, and the ENTIRE "Sams" collection up to 1970. I paid 100.00 for the TV Set, and 50.00 for the Sams.

The Sams was basically an entire pick-up truck load... Hopefully I'll never need to search for a schematic again!

The TV set needs a recap. I know, I'm not supposed to plug it in, but I did anyway....

The set works like it was brand new.

See the attached picture, keep in mind i'm running an old vhs tape through a very old VCR as a signal source....

The cabinet is in very very good shape, I didn't even clean it up before I took this picture.

Inside the set was a tag from a picture tube replacement in 1970.
