every time i see that truck its loaded to the hilt with old tvs and such! Maybe if i get one ill start finding Old electronic equiptment my the truckload.....can't fit too much in my Saturn and my 4 cyl S10 barely moves with a load of trash in the back, nevermind 200lb TVs

I began to break down the really bad televisions I got. Some of them had busted picture tubes and water damaged cabinets. I will save the wood from the good parts. I can possibly refurbish a few table top Tv sets with that wood.

The saved chassis are going with me to the car wash. The mice have been all over them. I will spray them down and store them for future use.

Picture Number two! I hope the trash man did not party this weekend! I have about that much more to toss out there.

Any (good) 21EP4s hiding in there?

[polaraman]

I got a 21ALP4 in the mess. It does not cross over to your CRT though. Most of the salvaged televisions that did not have the CRT busted were 17". I needed a few 17BP4 for a couple projects.

Got a good 9Qp4 for a future GE project. It has the replacement sticker on the CRT socket.

The lone(needed real bad) 21FP4 is not good. Well it is intact and rebuildable. Will keep looking for a replacement.

Nice haul!

I did the same thing back about 20 years ago; cleaned out a long-since-retired RCA technician's cellar. The deal: All his test equipment--including several magnificent Tek scopes--I could take, proveded I cleaned out all the television sets as well.

The mean age of the sets was a lot later than in the cache you encountered. There were numerous roundie color sets, and a lot of portables and table models.

And--unbeknownst to the aging tech, who for years hadn't been well enough to go down into his cellar--the whole lot had been flooded. You could see the high water mark--well above everything that mattered. Except for a (IRRC) B&K "flying spot" video test pattern generator the rest was a loss. I still have the Tek scopes, and may try to get one of them working some day when I feel so ambitious.
