Wow, hopefully it can be saved! Its a remote control unit too. Exact same set I found earlier this year, but this one looks mint. The one I picked up had alot of cosmetic flaws. If one has the room, its a neat set to have. I have a few motorola tube color sets and I think the picture is pretty decent. Same with the WID's. Seems like everyone hates motorola color TV's.

I agree with OLDTVMAN and JSTOUT66. Those were junk when they came out and will always be junk. Might think about keeping one as they will be a very rare set in the future. They are such a piece of junk nobody will even consider holding on to them.

You guys are a riot. I have a works in the drawer Motorola set. After doing some major repairs to the set, It has been working vary well and has a lot of hours on it. The only thing I can complain about is the crappy crt in this set. The emission checks good but it puts out a crap picture. I do have a replacement video display rebuild so when I get the time I will put it in. Other than that it has been a good runner. If I lived near cal I would grab it.
