Who made the TV in my Scott 800B combo?
I have had this Scott 800B combo for years and can't find out who made the television. It doesn't match any of the TVs labeled as Scott in the Sams Photofacts I've found.
http://www.antiqueradio.org/art/scott800b601.jpg Scott guru Norman Braithwaite told me that Scott put a variety of TVs into these combos, with different size CRTs, etc. In back of this CRT chassis is a Scott plate with the model number 9T40, which matches nothing I've found in literature. The arrangement of controls on the side suggested DuMont to me, but I haven't spotted a DuMont with an identical configuration. It has a continuously variable tuner with mechanical detents. The fine tuner shaft is concentric with the channel selector. The TV has three chassis, which I named CRT, power, and tuner when compiling the tube lineup. Type: Chassis 16AP4: CRT 6C4: CRT 6AU6: CRT 6K6GT: Power 6AL5: Power 12AU7: Power 6AC7: Power 6BG6: Power 6K6: Power 5V4: Power 1B3GT: Power 1B3GT: Power 6J6: Tuner 6J6: Tuner 6J6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AL5: Tuner 6AT6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AU6: Tuner 6AL5: Tuner 25L6: Tuner 12AT7: Tuner 6AC7: Tuner The TV works after recapping, but not as well as I'd like. For instance, it has the familiar "sound doesn't match best picture" issue. It would be keen to have a schematic before I start messing around. Ring any bells? If Scott simply plopped someone else's TV into this cabinet, you'd think that set would show up in literature under another name -- or something. Thanks!
