Is this a CTC-9 in Colorado?

If you talk nice, maybe they'll include that box of rat poison . . . .

Hope that back's on the set.. If there is rat poison under it, I hate to see the wiring inside the cabinet.. I work in a machine shop and program and repair CNC's. Rats habitually chew on power supply wiring here and it's nasty. Beautiful set though! The oldest color set I had was a CTC-12 I sold to JPDylon a few yewars back. Miss it..

...and it is located in the west-does Colorado have the same issues with Hantavirus like you find in exposure to rats in the Southwestern US?

I would probably look into it....if it was not so far away. At least I have my CTC-5 I got in feburary. Waited over 30 years to get one too!!

As it is....I need a ride for a 21" Arvin table model tv---from Racine Wisconsin to Ohio--at at least close to here.

I was joking about the rats. If that's his garage, it's tidier than mine!

Poison or not, if that were nearby, I'd be contacting the owner to stop by and take a look. Is he right about that being a faux finish?

Yep, that's a Winslow. It has real wood on the front and printed finish on masonite board for the sides. This set still has a 21CYP22 in it. I wonder how strong it is?
Forget about the rat poison, don't disturb those asbestos tiles.:D

That 21CYP22 has a metal cone right? Is that CRT plauged wit the fret bonding issues that the 15GP22 has?

The 21CYP22 is an all-glass CRT, following the 21AXP22 and 21AXP22A metal-cone CRTs.

Unbelievable. $152. I would have made a special trip out to Colorado if I knew I could have gotten that CTC-9 that cheap!

You don't want to know what I (hardly) paid for my -9, then. :eek:
Let's just say Goodwill didn't know what they had.

BTW, you could have gotten a -9 that cheap- but you didn't bid! :D
