Went Antiquing today and found this, I wasn't in the building two minutes when I happened across it.
Tag said "1920's TV $50" great deal for a pre war set, so-so for a post war Olympic, oh well, they also had 30% off everything in the booth so it only cost a little over $30.
It's in decent shape, wrong channel knob (RCA type) no back, cabinet scruffy but solid.
The bad news, as usual, is the CRT is junk.
The Beltron went through the rejuvention process and shows OK emissions but the life test is terrible. My B&K still shows the emissions as Bad and the cutoff barely there.
I found a GE 810 at another store for $75 but I told them I wouldn't buy it until I checked the CRT and I didn't have my tester with me, maybe next week if it's still there.
