The "Lockhaven" model. Nice upright console. Doesn't take up a lot of space.
Here's the Lockhaven, upper left, in the RCA brochure as seen on my web page:

Looks like it may be an easy restoration if anyone lives close enough to get it. The brightner might be just on there for a short in the tube instead of low emission as some of these type brightners were used for that. Seems like it has a bright enough raster providing the sellers pics arent all that great. If thats the case you might still get some life out of the tube until you find a suitable and more reliable replacement.

Sorry, it was a meant as a bit of harmless ribbing. If a guy can't poke a bit of fun at you tv guys, what is he to do. It was all in jest I assure you.

Sorry Guys,


Gremlins at work. If you want to see the RCA CTC-5 brochure, go to my site and scroll to the CTC-5 section. I'd call Bill Gates, and complain, but he's unlisted.
