It's looking good, that's my old Philco. I bought that set from Dwight a few years ago, hauled it all the way back out to CA, then moved back to MI with the set, and traded it back to him for a couple of space command Zenith b/w sets.

When I had that set it worked for a while as I got it, then I started having all kinds of problems with color sync. Eventually I got it working, but when I hauled it back to MI and turned it on it had all those problems you had to deal with. I don't know if it was shaking around in the moving van, or the cold (it was down around 0 in Missouri on that drive) that caused it, but it worked fine before I moved it.

I remember that I couldn't get the phonograph to work automatically though. But that is a new needle I put in there that I almost never used at all. I liked the way the dials on the stereo light up in that unit.
