Now you have TV twins, sweet! You're getting into the same collecting league as Doug. Made me think of his Quasar trio.

Ha, gotta love that sign in the foreground. Looks like that stack was an accident waiting to happen before you got there.

That is so awesome to be compared to Doug - the King of Zenith. When I got there, I only saw the color set, but when I went to pay, the ladies told me that there was yet another old console TV. It was in the back room marked "NOT INCLUDED IN SALE." I manhandled it and put it on top of the color set, and one of the ladies put sold stickers on both. We took the old beat up F150 for a spin to go pick them up. I plan on watching The Big Bang Theory tonight on the 25DC56 - it has high voltage and the 22-5001's have been replaced. What could possibly go wrong?

Famous last words...

According to Murphy's law the motor run cap for the VRT, the lytic under the chroma module, one or more of the 3 video out transistors, the module contacts and or the tuner contacts will ruin your program now that you've said that.

Let's not forget the socketed transistors on the 9-57 module. I've had intermittent contacts that caused reduced horizontal sweep, partial and complete loss of horizontal sync, pincushioning and no HV. One module I subbed in had a bad transistor; no HV until I changed the transistor.

That being said, did it last through the show?
