If you look at his other items, the same guy also has a ct-100 and an old b/w Sparton up for sale.

Kind of unique with that channel selector arrangement...less common.

No room for another console, (if it was a remote set I probably would bid anyway), but a non-remote console needing cateract repairs I can resist. I was thinking about bidding on that Sparton though. But the RCA looks to be in good condition with actual pictures of it working, so I hope somebody gets it.

I'm thinking real hard about a 2 for one trip to MI for both the roundie and the CT-100... Guess I'll put in a bid and see what happens later today.

I really like the Sparton he has for sale, it has a brightener on the tube though.

The channel indicator on this set certainly is unique, as there doesn't seem to be a VHF channel selector--just the UHF one. Does the VHF window show in place of the UHF dial scale when the set is tuned to a VHF channel? I can think of another arrangement whereby the VHF channels are projected to the center of the channel selector knob (like many Zeniths of the '60s). A switch on the back of the tuner would shut off this pilot light and illuminate the UHF slide-rule dial when the VHF tuner was set to the UHF position. Another possibility is that this set was intentionally designed to receive only UHF stations, for use in newer cities such as Youngstown, Ohio, Fort Wayne, Indiana, et al. that have no local VHF channels.
BTW, the cataract on this set's CRT looks terrible. I bet the safety glass would fall off the front of the tube if one sneezed on it.

What year is this TV ? I have a 21FBP22? kine (says on the gun connector)(from a 60's Zenith - actual tube model obscured by mounting band that also holds 4 mounting lugs that are set back ~1"). This tube has implosion shield & no cataract--so this TV would be interesting from that point of view, if, that is, this tube would drop in ?

Definately a great TV to have! How lucky to get an excellent original phospher color CRT to make the set look great off as well as on. |

$@&%*!
Can't believe this went up and I missed it in one of the first times I didn't log on to the net for four days straight, it was easily in my range, finished below my price target, and has the same channel knob/cyan reverse paint UHF scale my grandparent's color set had! I sure hope the winning bidder backs out and it gets relisted. |
