Thanks again to Gary for posting the set. I haven't gotten very far on this one yet but figured I'd share some pics of it anyway. I haven't started the recap due to some emergency repairs to a shipping damaged CTC7. That will be yet another thread coming soon. It works ok now, cans are cool, caps are crap in the vertical, all is pretty normal for a set this old. The linearity is as good as it gets right now
The CRT is dated 39th week of '61 and checks like new, as does the original one in my other 11, and 7, 4, 9 ect....man, I have good luck with round CRTs (knocking on wood)
Here are a few pics of it, I cleaned it before I took them but I'm sure we've all seen dust before.
I can't wait to refinish this cabinet, I think it will be very pretty. I have fixed little things that I haven't taken a pic of yet, like the broken badge on the speaker grille. I also have all the knobs, they were just not on in the pic. This set is yet another one from a non-smoking home so no nasty smell, until I smoke around it for a while, although I like to air the place out instead of letting it sit.
