Yeah, I am.

Already I have a better understanding and appreciation for the factory worker who assembled TV's in the 50's!

They typically did the same 1, 2 or 3 functions - you're mimicking the whole dang factory!

Yeah, I think what it takes to get one of these into production. Every single step has to be built in, workers trained, QC, and testing, parts suppliers...Whew!

Though I do think I'm having more fun though!

His attention to detail still impresses me! I used to be almost that good.
I think, he's teaching some of us old dogs, new tricks.
RE: the speaker connector, many sets of the day, just used RCA phono jacks and plugs.

Thanks for the kind words.

Great idea on using a RCA phono jack and plug!

I'm working on setting up a file sharing system so you guys can down load the full set of documents including the 6 step-by-step instruction sheets, the step-by-step instruction sheet for the IF Strip, the Instruction Booklet, a large copy of the schematic, Supplementary sheet, and any other document that came with the kit. Eventually, I'd like to get the docs to the ETF.

[Crist Rigott]

OK. I uploaded all the docs that came with the kit. They are:

Instruction Sheets 1 thru 6. Full size 17x12
IF Strip Instruction Sheet. Full size 17x22
Schematic 11x17
Instruction Booklet
Parts List
Supplementary Sheet

You should be able to DL all the files I put there. CAUTION! Some of the files are about 7MB each. They are high def files.

Let me know how this is working for you.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/v5ow2i7x8...rbUlywh3a?dl=0

Once at the file list, click on the file, then when it opens, click on "open" in the upper R/H corner of the screen. It should open as a pdf. Then click save as and save the file.

I finished step 3 (Sync Section) this evening. I'm still waiting on some .0047uf film caps so I couldn't install C27 yet. I think the caps will be here on Saturday. Things went pretty well. It got pretty tight on V10 with 3 resistors and 2 caps on 3 terminals. Anyway here is an overall view so far and then a close up of the area worked.

Between the 6 Instruction Sheets and the IF Strip Instruction Sheet, there are 280 individual steps!

103 have been completed.
