This was one of GE's first models using the "new" printed circuit boards. I had a table model with just power tuning and it was fun to service into a great performer, far better than GE's "portable" models.

I have a 1956 "Ultra Vision" with controls (and chassis) above the picture tube the last GE using dip-soldering. Its 21AUP4 was dead but the ETF sold me a NOS Raytheon replacement at reasonable cost. It makes a raster even before a re-cap, GE used fewer but better parts , Philco on the other hand.....

This is absolutely worth getting for the sheer fun of it or at least saving from a terrible fate.
not found anything around here yet, but it is rather soon.

I did e-mail ETF with a heads up that a CRT will be needed at some time at a future date, no reply yet, but its only been 2 days.
