I think you were replying to my signature line. Yes, I am a proud "fringe weirdo" as well.

Here's my latest set - a GE 21C3461 from around 1960 with wireless RF remote. It's in great condition and works but unfortunately, I don't have the remote control


Here's the RF receiver and giant coaxial speaker.

Here's a portion of a 1960 GE TV ad that shows the remote.

Cool. There have been a couple remotes on ebay over the last couple years but I missed out on both.

Lots of bass but a little odd since it's so close to the ground.

Heres my latest project. I picked it up from craigslist a few weeks ago. Recapped and installed new grill cloth, I couldn't find anything like the original but this looks okay, It plays excellent.

Very Nice! And I think that cloth is an excellent approximation of the original.

I think that cloth looks very good!

I haven't been very actively repairing sets lately but I did manage to get this Admiral Bakelite Tabletop running recently, took several months off and on.

I noticed after I reinstalled it in the cabinet that it needs some new rubber bushings under the CRT to bring it in alignment with the mask.

Thanks Kevin and Eric, the cloth got a nod of approval from my wife also, so I'm happy with it. Sure looks better than the ratty torn faded stuff that was in there.
Eric, that little Admiral sure has a nice picture. Cool little set.

Here are a couple of my late '40's RCA sets: A Canadian 8T243 10" circa 1949(note the rounded picture tube mask used on Canadian sets) and a 1949 9TC275 using a 16AP4 CRT.
