"New" CTC-10 Henredon and CTC-9
2 Attachment(s)
Hello, first post in a looooong time. Since before Audiokarma 'split' I believe...
So I just picked up a CTC-10 in a custom "Henredon" cabinet from a local gentleman here in Folsom. He advertised it on craigslist and it was just a fluke that I happened to see it since I don't usually look on CL for old TVs. I picked up this beautiful set form him, along with a CTC-9 with a sheared off neck. He said he actually used to post here so maybe some of you know the sets or have spoken to him before. Problem on the CTC-10 is the CRT is a bit weak and I'm looking to see if anyone has a color brightener they would like to part with? The CTC-9 will need a CRT and, well, we know how that can go. |
Welcome ! 2 nice sets ! Look to be in VERY good cosmetic condition.
|
Hey, welcome back! Nice sets and I am very sorry that the one was "necked". Hope you get access to good CRTs so that these sets can be brought back to life. Please, keep us posted...
|
Nice looking sets, and great score!
|
Wow-power tuning,too!
|
If you can't find one closer, let me know, I'm sure I have a spare 21" brightener.
|
Nice set, and yes I know how that can be with CRTS, I have two sets that needed CRTS and both times when I found a replacement, it turned into a nightmare, and I'm still trying to get a refund out of Greyhound since early this year.. If you are going to get a CRT I would recommend using U-Ship.. It's a bit more pricey but you most likely won't have a DOA..
|
Thank you for the warm welcome! :D

Does it look like your remote takes the weird round 9 volt battery?
I had a 67 Magnavox that used one of those, and I think the CTC-31 I used to own took one as well.... If so, I had special ordered some through Radio Shack (circa 2001) Hopefully they still offer them, but I remember it was kind of a bitch back then. |
Yep, that's got to be the one... if it 'll fit; maybe I can try a modern 9v...
|
Good luck, but check with radio shack, they should be able to look it up if you have the old battery, or the battery type is listed in your remote.

And BTW I have had poor experiences with Uship. the carriers are often very un-reliable and I have found that I can often beat the Uship prices using commercial trucking companies. |
I agree with Bob! I've been very happy with The 'Hound for shipping and receiving TV's and CRT's.
Don't trust just any shipper. When I bought my pinball machine (the one in my avatar) on ePay from somone in Florida, the first thing it did was disappear into the shipper's warehouse. For about a month, we heard nothing from anyone! :sigh: Lotsa luck with Shipping Wars, I'll take my drama queens ON the TV, not delivering it! |
I've successfully installed a 21FJP22 in a set that was built for a 21CYP22. There are slight color issues, but I've never done the modifications on my sets, and dont really notice a problem with flesh tone colors.
I know I should do the mod. RCA went to all the trouble to add the fix to their manuals!! |

My CTC-9 has a 21FJP22a installed without any mods. I'm happy with the fleshtones. Here's a photo.
