Nice Model with big speakers. Are you outfitting it with a stereo amplifier to take input from a set-top box. In 1978, I had a CTC16XL in a GG-643W. It made watching SNL a treat! The tuner was nearly as good as our Zenith.
I learned many things on that set to make a vintage RCA perform studio-perfect. For one thing, the convergence is easy and without compromise on a roundie! I also performed a complete IF and color stage re-alignment for kicks, tho it did not need it. But beware of the short HV rectifier, notably the 3A3C's, as these could kill your flyback. ...Good luck
