Admiral Schematic

The only literature I know of covering the Admiral 15" set is the "Admiral Color TV Training Course" dated 1/1/54 published by Admiral. Does anyone else have one? I happened to come across mine at a local electronic surplus shop YEARS ago. Many moons ago I lent it to our esteemed guru in Ca., who still has it. He photocopied the schematic and sent it to Bruce B. who has the only known set still in existence (found it in KANSAS of all places). Has anyone heard from Bruce lately?

Not trying to be argumentative, but I've seen many times that literature had been printed and released for something that never did get into actual production (am speaking of automotive stuff primarily, but am sure this situation applies to most any industry or product)

In 1954 the American consumer couldn't buy an "Westinghouse" H840CK15 if it couldn't be found on the market.

Admiral Literature

I agree with what you say, Heathkit. To me, that is what makes it interresting.

Oh no, not the dreaded 2000 again! Search this site for some 'interesting' threads concerning a certain person repeatedly trying to sell one on eBay. It resulted in some cretin falsely accusing me of sending him a virus laden e-mail. To this day he's too stupid to understand the truth of the situation. Yeah, you know who I'm talking about, deal with it. :lamo:
