"owner may have been a smoker...?"

[holmesuser01]

I was going to mention the smoke getting into the plastic. Clean it to death, and then replace all capacitors. When it fires up, you will be reminded of a smokers household.

I have a little Motorola 17" color set from the end of the tube era. It was a smoker TV, and it took over 4 years of daily running to lose the ciggy smoke smell... mostly.
