I've been eyeing that set, I like the looks of it. I'm surprised to hear it's a cold chassis, I wouldn't have expected that.

I am 100% SURE it is cold. About 95% sure it uses a 5U4 rect...mounted vertically on the left "wing' of the chassis above the tranny. Mostly consists of 2 PCB's the one on the left has the IF , audio and video..the one in the middle has the deflection ckts. Flyback should be on the right "wing", H-out and damper tubes mounted above it. Probably a 110 degree tube also...

Same basic chassis as this 21" version.
Cold chassis, 5U4. I was eyeing it too but it's a 400 mile drive, one way, that and the lack of space... |

This is the same basic chassis of the set that was blown up on the 'Teevee" episode of the show 'Emergency"..where gage and chet TRY to "fix" the tv...and DESTROY it. I thin it was an M6--but that chassis is a LOT like the M4 or M5

I wouldn't mind having that set; but, it would never survive shipping from CA to MS.

Isn't it against ebay rules to show a TV set actually working, with an image on the CRT?

The only real problems with those was the caps in the vert sweep, as you can see. That was back when the set was fairly new, now they all need replacing. |

The shipping would be $55 to $75, for that distance. The brittle knobs wouldn't survive, unless they're removed and packed separately.

Here it is. I see a lot of those 'bumblebee' capacitors in there. I'm sure they're all leaky, those are the worst! I'll be recapping it completely before I even fire it up… Here's a chassis pic...

Good luck! Those PC boards are even harder to get out than Predictas

I haven't tried to get at them yet (been working on something else tonight) but at least these boards appear to screw on and not use those solder-on tabs to hold them down like the Philcos have.

There were holes under the chassis to access the bottom of the board, so I managed to get away without having to remove it. It's basically working now, but still has some minor issues. It has an iffy IF tube socket. I'm hoping just cleaning it will fix it. The shaft of the tuner knob and contrast knobs are a bit broken. I need to take the CRT out and clean the front of it.

These were the good GE's. Ran quite nice & stood up well.
Still a pain to work on though. After this GE made crap sets til the solid states came out. Dont forget to collect all the colors !! 73 Zeno |
