Yeah, I know it's an old thread but I was looking for pics of old PB's and this was the same year as mine.

It really is a beautiful set. Thanks for posting it 4 years later!

98D1 chassis? What model is the set? If it's not too much trouble, you seemed to be saying earlier that you had to replace the yoke stopper thing. I'm curious about what you did (and if possible, maybe even a pic of what you did?). I've lost mine and need to figure out what to do for a replacement since apparently PB's method of securing the yoke was uncommon.

Well the tv is currently apart, the crt went out like a bomb and took out the safety glass as well. I fixed the yoke "stopper thingy" with some thicker, big rig truck, inner tube rubber. It worked fairly well, even if it was a tad on the ugly side.

I will pull out the tv and check the what the chassis is, hopefully figuring out what the model was. Im no expert by any means, im the newby guy who pulls one part, replaces it, makes sure it still works, then does another.

Okay, the model # is 24s, the chassis says its a 836 [ 1 ]

hope this helps

I guess it's not related to my TV then. I would think the "24" would indicate a 24" TV rather than a 21". At any rate, good luck getting it back into service!

Im so sorry, back when i originally posted this i had measured wrong, it is indeed a 24" crt, a 24aep4.

I have picked up a new 24aep4, that supposedly tests a tad on the low side. So ive been putting off its installation, something i will have to do soon.
