Yeah, I was wondering exactly what kind of TV is that, and the one immediately to its right?

To the right of that set is my RCA 9T246. Works fine, but not the brightest picture in the world due to low HV, that I still have to trace down.

The Motorola came from bandersen

My '62 Motorola remote, a favorite of my collection.

On the other side of the room, this is my workbench, with a Halolight chassis currently underway. I got a whole bunch of hardrock maple kitchen cabinets from a friend, really well made from the 1950s, and more than I'll ever need for my kitchen. The excess really worked out well here

I can work in a mess, but it has to be organized

When I need a tool or a part, if it's not right at hand and I don't know where it is, it slows the job down to nothing, and drives me insane

Tim,

That is a great lair and I bet its warm with all the tubes lit...

Is that a Hickock 277 signal generator I see in the first pic?

610A, with a 505A scope

Got the scope mostly recapped, but now the damn sweep is vertical, not horizontal. Eh, whatever, it looks cool anyway
