It's good for more than porn, despite what Mark thinks!

The 7 came both ways; transformer-mounted dual 5U4s, or seleniums. Also the cheaper ones had side tuning, and the high end had front tuning.

Okay dad erm...I mean nick.

Seriously though I was mostly joking earlier. Most of what I use the net for is the forums, though I did once learn by accident that if you forget the .org part of this sites name you can end up on a pron site. I really could not have given a damn about computers or the internet untill a few years back, and did not really start to discover all the many splendid things out there untill my school gave me a laptop (which I probably would not have given a damn about either were it not for some of the places I went to on the family computer when the folks were out). I rarely use the net for studying....I don't want to turn in to one of those human google bars who has to google everything instead of checking the text book first, remembering things, or asking those around him for an explanaton.

Though when one is my age and doesn't have/know how or have confidence to try to get a 3D girl hormones kinda force you to fall back to 2D girls.

Mike Damone: I mean don't just walk in. You move across the room. And you don't talk to her. You use your face. You use your body. You use everything. That's what I do. I mean I just send out this vibe and I have personally found that women do respond. I mean, something happens.
Mark Ratner: Well, naturally something happens. I mean, you put the vibe out to 30 million chicks, something is gonna happen.
Mike Damone: That's the idea, Rat. That's the attitude.
Mark Ratner: The attitude?
Mike Damone: Yeah!
Now when you got that, then you have the attitude.

Well, it looks like the CTC-7 will be moving about 7 miles north!

I went to see it Wednesday, and honestly, I placed the winning bid because of the quality of the recap on the chassis, and the good CRT (slight Zenith-type cataract on Sylvania tube). The cabinet is built to spectacular standards; all solid laminate hardwood (no thin Masonite on framework, or photo-wood like many original RCA cabinets). I have great appreciation for the workmanship on it, so I wouldn't dream of failing to keep the cabinet in good shape. With that said, I think the chassis would be well-placed in an original cabinet if possible in the future.

I haven't figured out yet where to put it, but it will be in a safe place and well-kept. I have a rather unique GE rebrand front-control CTC-9, which is in nice shape but has a busted CRT and various chassis problems. I might slip the 7 in there, if it can be done withOUT making any permanent mods to the chassis. The only physical mounting difference that I can think of, is that the tuner has an indicator drum and window on the 7, and a regular channel-numbered knob on the GE.

You can likely stick the 9's tuner on the 7's chassis, so it will fit in the cab no problem.
