I still have the rest of that chassis for you if you want it, I'll drop it on your porch next time I drive by.

I don't have any sets that use that chassis, but if no one else needs it, sure I'll take it.
I brought the TV chassis inside for a closer look. Some of the power resistors and one or two caps have been replaced, but the rest looks stock. ![]() Nice, original warning labels. ![]() Flyback appears to be OK. ![]() RCA CRT had good emissions within seconds and the life test is rock solid ![]() Quite possibly the best used 10BP4 I've come across so far. ![]() Assuming I didn't pick up the hantavirus in that basement, I'd say it was worthwhile

I see that chassis has a Standard Coil tuner. Is it a split channel audio? I see it uses a leaded tube shield on the 6J6. All the early models I've seen had a radio that was powered by the tv power supply. At least it has that coveted HV cage cover.

Yes, it's split audio. I would have thought the radio would be powered from the TV supply, but it has it's own transformer.

I took a closer look at the radio and was surprised to discover that it's completely self contained. It even has it's own power cord and 6V6 output amp. I really expected it to share some components with the TV especially the separate power and amp chassis.
![]() ![]() That big cap is a replacement for the one mounted on top of the chassis. ![]() The control layout is a little goofy. OFF-ON-TONE, FM-BC-PW, VOLUME I wonder what the PW band position does ? ![]() If I had the tools and skills I could make a customer cabinet for it

The PW may be PH, and it would be for Phono, whether built-in (on some models) or with an external input jack.
