New Roundie for me

I was out minding my business on Friday and was approached by
an unknown person that said she could no longer care for her TV
and said to take it home. As a good sumaritan, that I am, I could
not refuse. Its now residing in my museum, working and well.
The markings are CTC4, Is this the director.

If that lady is elderly/a shut in, a NICE meal, bottle of wine, pumpkin pie, something of that nature might be a very nice & welcome "Thank You"...Down here, people put BIG stock in things like that.

Holy crap, don't see that every day! And the dag hasn't fallen off the CRT insulator or anything! That thing had to have been well cared for, that's for sure!

It is a CTC-4 and is the "Director" model. Very nice find. Santa came early this year.

That's the model I would like to have some day. I only intend to make room for exactly one roundie color set, and probably I will wait until one of those comes along. Should be much easier to acquire than a CT-100. The later model roundies don't appeal to me much, for whatever reason. And an upright console takes a lot less space than the more common horizontal ones.
