I got this '78 Panasonic CT-117 "Quintrix II" 9" color TV from an 83 year old man just a little while ago. Over the past two weeks, I fixed two older TV's for him: an '85 Sears 19" and a '76 Sears 13" (both made by Toshiba). See, there are still a few people who will have older TV's fixed. He said he has an old color console that he thinks is from the '60's that he might want me to fix. Right now, he's using it for a TV stand. He also said he thinks he still has the first B&W TV that he ever bought back in the '50's and that he'd give it to me if he could find it.
This Panasonic comes to life; but, it needs a tuner and control cleaning. Also, this is an AC only set. I've seen some similar sets that were AC/DC. I'm sure this set will have a good picture when I'm done with it.
