Looks pretty good to me...lol. Now all they need to do is figure out a way to mount it on a wall!

I wonder if that is the 8TS30 that was on the colorized masters 1960 replay. I about flipped in anger when they showed that set. I figure a few folks would copy and destroy a good Tv set.

Think I'll tell him the news, it's worth more with the crappy portable out and put to the curb. Bet he has a cow! Worst of all, the knobs are from a Philco! I wonder if it gave its life for this abomination, too!

I wonder if the converter kept the innards . . . might be worth asking, if they're just sitting on a shelf in somebody's basement.

It's particularly attractive that the raster doesn't even fill the screen opening!
