hi
a brief story of this tv. 15 years ago I place an ad in one of local byline magazine ( for queens nyc area). the ad stated, wanted color tv from the 50' or 60' non working or working. two years later I was contacted by the original owner and a hard core Yankee fan. the tv was found dead. no nothing, with cataracts and the price was about $200.00. he did not want to go down with the price so I walk away.
a few week later he contacted me again and this time his grandkids were there and they said to him that I was the only one interested, so my offer was 40.00 he said no and finally we agreed on 60.00.
the damage was dead circuit breaker. broker burst phase transformer and non functional 3.8 crystal. two electrolytic capacitors were replaced. Picture tube red and blue very weak, and tube was rebuild in texas.
