philharmonic 8200 tabletop tv

[radarv]

well we made some headway on the philharmonic yesterday. I went to my tv/radio mentors place with the set. we worked on it for several hours. replaced some caps & out of spec resistors. we now have raster on the top half of the picture tube. but still have some issues. but she is slowly coming to life.

That's a good sign when there's a raster. Check the ion trap and focus coil/ or magnet.

well guys, I'm back after a rough year. had some bad stuff happen. but things are looking up. anyhow, I just dug the philharmonic back out. was wondering if any new info has surfaced on my set or if any one has ever seen one? was looking at the knobs and I think they may be off a rca or a philco. there was old glue in them and the tunning knob says UHF VHF off on it in very small letters. I know this set doesn't have UHF. my guess the originals either striped out, broke ,or got lost sometime in the past. I would love to see another set like this so I can see what the heck they are supposed to be. anyhow , glad to be back. I look forward to catching up on what I missed here.
