Midwest 16" schematic needed - Videokarma.org TV - Video

This is going to be a tough one to find. The Midwest set I picked up in Cincinatti is very obscure. Tom Genova (of tvhistory.tv) has sent me some scans of catalog sheets from Midwest Radio and TV corp. Based on what I can tell from these catalog sheets it looks like the chassis in my TV is a TR-12. (I would guess that means..... Television Radio 12" )

My set is a 16 inch so maybe my set has a TR-16 chassis if there is such a model.

In any event if anyone can help in any way to guide me in the right direction to locate the schematic for this set it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks to all,
Bob

I probably have the schematic for your set but could you post a picture of the TV? From what year is it? I have the 1950 Midwest catalog and there are several models for a 16 inch set. If I have the schematic I will not be able to copy and send it until Wednesday of this week.

This would be fantastic, if you have the prints for it. I have attached the only photos I have of it thus far. I think it would be about 1952 or 51. I searched my sams library and ther are no schmatics of Midwest TVs , only Midwest radios. Sure hope you hit a home run on this. This will be a real neat set when restored. Unusual and pretty rare too.

Thank you , Thank you, Thank you!!!!

I do have the schematic you need. I believe that your chassis is the Model CJ-32. I will have to take the service info out of the binder to get it on the copying machine but I will do that tomorrow (family flying in from Milwaukee today). Send me a PM with your address so that I can get it sent off to you.
