My Brand New CTC-7!

Congratulations! Very nice picture! I am looking forward to seeing pictures that nice on my CTC-7 Sanford, once I replace the 21CYP22, and more caps! It's the oldest color set I've ever owned.

Thanks Dave! I just noticed something interesting. There appears to be 3 phosphor errors on the face of the CRT. Two of the errors are missing their red dot in the triad of the RGB dots. And one is missing a blue dot in the triad of RGB dots. Could I have caused this or could it have been a manufacturing defect?

It may be a manufacturing flaw. My Zenith Roundy has the same issue in a couple spots.
