21CT55 #2628 restoration

[Tomcomm]

Hey Dave, its looking good. Less than 18 weeks working the restoration so far is quite fast considering you went silicon rectifiers and big electrolitic cap stuffing. Of course you replaced the white RCA peaking coils and a number of small under-chassis yellow caps. Was this a less than mandatory complete re-cap or did it come this way? I really respect your logical, systematic approach to each problem you encountered and shared the process with the Members. I hope you get the Wizard of Oz for subjective evaluation of your 21CT55 picture quality and suggest also getting the " Digital Video Evaluation" DVD's test patterns for critical setup and objective PQ evaluation. Looking forward for your full-screen width, no room light, full computer monitor posted JPGs. I know what the 21CT55's are capable of so lotsa luck finishing this one off...........Tom
