My First Color Roundie
Hey guys, some of you might remember me posting once in a while, but until now I hadn't been able to land one of these color beasts-
So here she is- Only strings attached was that I had to take the other tube era rect. color Zeniths, and a 50's Philco Golden Grid set, located down some steep basement stairs. The date code on the tubes indicates it's a '63. I assume it's an RCA chassis? Any ideas on the number? Anything I should watch out for on this design? And in case you're wondering about the make, it's a Silvertone- I have no idea what the original knobs should be on this one, so if someone knows, throw me a bone! Looks like the original CRT, and I actually got a pic and sound on powerup, though very, very dark. A flip of the switch to service mode and I get nice, bright setup bars so there's potential here. I haven't dusted for the tube number but it appears to have separate safety glass. It's no CT-100 but I plan on giving it the full treatment : ) So, whaddaya think? Cory |
