Yessir. Capacitance of the long cable would have smeared fine detail in the pic, so it had to be fed by a low impedance source (cathode follower), keeping the vid.output stage next to the CRT.

Nice story and nice score, Bob. Cool set, about as cool as they get.

Its in worcester mass. I was there two weeks ago and bought a zenith 9s 262 for 10.00. My friend bought a 7 incn motorola for 20.00. The zenith needs cabinet work at the bottom. Clean chassis with correct wooden knobs. I was going to take the predicta head but when I checked the crt it was dead. If you want it its under radios and tvs for sale. I could pick it up.

Thats a neat looking set Bob And what stupid 'git' decided to cut that cable??
That must be so annoying, are you able to make up something that will do the job ok?

I have seen a few of these where the cable was brittle, broken and otherwise fried, perhaps this one was in bad shape before it was cut off.
