I wish I could make it this year. If I get my tax return before the auction I may think of bidding on that 21CT55, though I should and probably will put that in to improving my car.

I haven't missed one yet!

But if YOU can't make it this year, we plan to do a live webcast of the events all day Saturday. It will be available on the home page of the Early Television Foundation and Museum's website.

I will be there. BOTH Sat and Sunday--getting there friday evening.

I set up everything over 2 months ago.

Bringing a good 7JP4 and a CTC 4 that MAY have a aired tube--but Steve does NOT think it is. It WILL be tested at the ETF to make sure one way or the other before auction.

May also have a pretty much complete predicta 10L43 set with good tube.

I plan to take stills for later posting as usual.

Dave, bring something soft to throw at me if I step in front of the video camera!

A dear friend of mine has reported to me that in the convention there was also a nice CTC7 Worthington (that I'm searching since a lot of years). Has anyone some pictures of this tv set? It's quite rare to find out one of them!

I bid to $1200 on it, I think it went for $1600. You couldn't find a a cleaner set.

PS - you guys sure worked my ass off . But I was glad to help!!!

Oh yes! I thought that the Worthington could be sold for that amount! It's a pity for me that I couldn't be there!
However I hope that it was sold to someone of ours and that he put some nice pictures on Videokarma, because that set was never portrait well on internet.

WoW! Thank you for sharing the pictures of your nice CTC7 Worthington! I'm very happy that one of ours is the fortunate owner of a so beautiful set!

Very nice Adam! I've never seen it on Earlytelevision museum.
Then we will see the pictures of the rear and inside the set from Old Tv nut!
I can't wait to see the remote control receiver and transmitter of this set!
