Aww man, I really feel for you guys, I do. But what fun would it be if you didn't have to work on it? I bet you get tremendous satisfaction once it is fixed and working. I get a euphoric pride when I fix something, which makes me happy. I really think those old TV's are cool and I admire you guys hard work and efforts to give us fellow AKers the clips you do of them beautiful units. The closest thing I have to your TV's is a 1983 Quasar 25" CRT "dynacolor". It was in my parents basement from new. I used it as my primary TV until 2004. It has been in storage ever since. I absolutely love the picture it has. I did have to take it apart one time to replace a pinched power cord, and I was astounded as to how much circuitry is in a TV

Those Matsushita-built Quasars are very reliable sets. I bet it makes a great picture. |

It's fun the first time. Second time, not so much. Third time . . . it's easy to find something more interesting to do.
I hate re-fixing something I thought I did a decent job of restoring in the first place. Phil Nelson |

ayup. After lugging the 30+ pound chassis out of the awkward mounting position, fixing the problem, mounting it, and re connecting everything the 3rd or 4th time - you get sick of it.

Not only that, but if your workshop is n the garage, or upstairs/downstairs, you may need to move the whole dang ensemble around the house to fix it. Back-breaker!
