They even had click-stop UHF tuners decades ahead of everyone else. :)

Nope, that's not a 1950's 9-inch B&W TV, that's a circa 1974-76 Taiwan-made Solid State Sylvania 9-inch B&W TV. This eBay seller has his decades a little mixed up w/the 1950's and 1970's here. 1974-76 is the correct vintage for this TV to the eBay seller who maybe looking here on VK:-)

Some folks are history-poor. If it was pre-1990 it's Civil War era.

"I have collected radios & test equipment for 50 years now..."

You'd think he'd have a better idea of age then.:scratch2:

He also has a "Percision" signal generator, "IMB Selectric" ribbons, (an ITT) Cortello telephone, "Harmon Kadron" cassette deck and an "Emmerson" vcr!

I tend to call those iconic Philcos "predicas".
