There's also what looks to be a CTC-9 set as well.

With any luck the winner will bid on the lot to get his hands on the CTC9 and want to sell off some of the others.

I'm in MI and might have a use for one of them

Are any of the pictured sets the CTC16?

I bought the group of tv's from Dean in Kalamazoo, Mi I didn't want to see them get destroyed after I bring them home I will probably offer most of them to other members if your interested. I surely don't have room to keep them all infinitily.

Nice little collection there. That Colortrak2000 looks identical to the set that replaced our CTC-40 in 1987. It liked to turn itself on with volume at full-blast in the middle of the night.

The tuner modules on those sets were notorious for having ring cracks on the solder connections for the edge connectors, after soldering all connections on connector no more problems occurred

I like the Magnavox combos. Might be interested in some of them if you sell them.

Got the crew and the big truck ready to head for Michigan tomorrow. I don't think these guys realize how heavy some of these sets are, I guess that's why you never heard much about theft of home entertainment systems back in the day. hahah.

Larry,
That was a lot of gross weight on your backs today, mine hurts just from the sideline I hope you enjoy the sets, the others will go into long term storage at the Lake. If you happen to part the maggie U45 combo I might need the turntable platter for my U45 astro let me know if that happens I will buy some parts just in case
