I got a call from my contact at the local thrift store. There was a lady who was donating some furniture and an RCA TV. Since they stopped taking floor models, a photo was taken by the pick-up dudes but not good enough for this forum.
I called the lady and she said "nobody wants a TV with tubes anymore" Rather than ask, in vain of course, if tubes was PLURAL...I began dreaming of NEW VISTA....:drool:
Her husband bought it from a local dealer who was a popular RCA store, closing in the early 90's, so reality strikes one. She said it still works, strike two. She lives nearby so I am going over this evening with my truck and blankets. I will take it as a favor to one of the greatest generation, though I bet its a mid-80s Colortrak.:sigh:
