Sylvania Saratoga Restoration

Bob and I picked up this set from the Quad Cities area (Moline) yesterday. CRT was sleepy when we got there, but a quick run on the Beltron brought it back up to like new emission on all 3 guns with a decent life test. It's a smoker set, lots of nicotine on the cabinet. First step is scrubbing that crud off, then I will evaluate the chassis for a parts order.



It's very original, a few tube replacements but the CRT is factory Sylvania 21AXP22. Big unknown right now is the Corotron regulator tube, which is unobtanium. I hear Folsom has a way to test them, so I'll likely send it to him to verify.
