Hi Gang;

Yesterday I made the trip to check out this set. It is a Crosley, and it looked pretty rough. I was almost certain the crt would be a hopeless cause from the looks of it. To my amazement when I hooked it up to my crt tester it darn near pinned the meter! What a pleasant surprise. It's a 12" round tube and apparently is in excellent condition.

I decided to take the set after all. I paid the owner $25 and we loaded it and it's table/stand onto my truck and off I went. It's missing some sort of a disc or plate around the tuning knob which I'd guess is also why there are no channel numbers visible, but for $25 I can't complain too much.

I havent figured out the model or chassis number yet. I'll let you know when I get it up and running.

Bob.
