Found a poor lonely Admiral 9" B&W hybrid set today

[DavGoodlin]

That looks like a set I had long ago, since few 9-inchers had a one-knob tuner.
Tubes:5GS7-3HA5-4EJ7-4EH7-8JV8-17BF11-17JZ8-8CG7-33GY7...
The slug for the H-hold was buggered and I never got it locked in.


It was a Bradford, found at a Staten Island Landfill by friends trespassing there.
Does anyone know if this set was sold under the name "Bradford" by WT Grant stores?

IIRC most Bradfords 19" & under were GE at the time. Consoles
were Wells-Gardener. The W-G sets were hybrids with modules also.
They were a decent set especially with a good replacement CRT
like a Zenith.

The set you had was probably an import Westinghouse. Westinghouse built sets for Grant's from the mid-60's until W/H quit TV's in around 1969. The tubes were all stamped ATC, Appliance Television Corp.
Panasonic built some of their small screen hybrid color sets at the same time.
