Hey akent, you will remember the name Bill Fisher TV & Appliance in Rockford, IL, my hometown. In the 70's I worked at Ch. 23 as a director doing Bill's commercials. Bill knew I liked old stuff and called me one day to take away an old set he took in on trade. Remember that concept? I borrowed the company station wagon and hauled away my first CT-100 for free. It still worked and pulled in Madison with rabbit ears. But did I have a clue as to what I really had? NO. Just a neat, 20 year old color tv. Eventually the vert output xfmr went and so did the set in a trade to RCA who wanted it for Indianapolis. I got a CC002 VHS color camera. I still have it.
I'll be home after Christmas. PM me and I will buy you a beer and we can swap stories. More stories to follow so I do not hog this fun thread.
