Nice curb find! zenithfan1 05-14-2009, 05:16 PM Wow! Those don't show up on the curb very often. Great save! I always liked the RCA's with the little door on top for the controls. Tube TV 05-14-2009, 05:19 PM I never find stuff like that , so much 1980's B&W portables , nothing good . What a great find ! wa2ise 05-14-2009, 05:57 PM I once found a TV like that RCA (think it was an RCA, but similar model, mounted on a swivel) on the curb back around 1970, but my father (who was also into electronics) said to not waste time on a set with such a small screen. Tested the tubes, think the horiz output's cathode had a short to the heater, but as a high school kid with no money, couldn't afford the big bux for a new tube. :tears: It got parted out and tossed. At the time it wasn't an interesting antique, but just an old POS... Dan Starnes 05-15-2009, 01:58 PM Wow! Good goin. stromberg6 05-15-2009, 05:46 PM I sure do miss those bulk trash drives of the '60's and 70's. Tons of neat stuff like your Great RCA! Are you going to restore it? Kevin |
