I hope someone finds it before it rains. It never rains in Portland Oregon. I live on the east coast.

View Full Version : Sony On Street Firebird 06-10-2012, 09:53 PM I hope someone finds it before it rains. It never rains in Portland Oregon. I live on the east coast. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/zip/3069989764.html Firebird 06-10-2012, 10:03 PM Picture radiotvnut 06-10-2012, 10:27 PM That one is from the late '80's-early '90's and I actually used to have one like it. It will make a nice picture if the CRT is still strong and if everything is adjusted right. kx250rider 06-11-2012, 12:07 PM KV-27TS20.... Great set, horrible CRT. It had the infamous A68JMT50X, which got gassy in a year or two. It upgrades to the A68KZJ50X; a much better tube. Anyone who grabs it, might want to see which tube's in there, and act accordingly...

It will make a nice picture if the CRT is still strong and if everything is adjusted right. According to the listing, it states that it has trouble coming on. It's either the lytics drying out, or the CRT is a little funky. I like Sony's, but that is a little too much of a gamble. P.S. Is that the Sony side of the street. consoleguy67 06-11-2012, 02:45 PM Ughhhh!!! Electronic M 06-11-2012, 05:35 PM P.S. Is that the Sony side of the street. Joke/reference understood, but " 'taint funny Mc Gee"! I'm sort of surprised that anyone cares enough about a BPC set to post it here. tvcollector 06-11-2012, 06:00 PM That's something that someone should set fire too.. It would make a good light show, especially if it's turned on during the process. Electronic M 06-11-2012, 06:03 PM That's something that someone should set fire too.. It would make a good light show, especially if it's turned on during the process. :lmao::lmao: That is just the sort of thing I might do to such a set. Firebird 06-18-2012, 12:18 PM I guess it is gone, hope it got a good home. Sandy G 06-18-2012, 01:45 PM That's something that someone should set fire too.. It would make a good light show, especially if it's turned on during the process. Remember the TV episode of "The Secret Life of Machines" on "Tellies" where they did just that ?!? I seem to remember an EVIL grin on Tim Hunkin's face...Think he was gettin' a Kick outta that "Wall o' Tellies" sputting, sputtering, fizzing, popping, & dying...Mbwahahahahahaha.. mpatoray 06-18-2012, 09:55 PM Sandy, remember it well i used to love that show when I was a kid, watched it and "invention" on The Discovery Channel whenever it was on, have it on crappy SLP VHS but also downloaded the entire unedited series to my iPhone. There was at least 1 Sony in that fire and some interesting HMV and Thorens sets. What needs to be done to most BPC is the Rodger Daltrey treatment, tossed into a swimming pool while plugged in and turned on. DavGoodlin 06-19-2012, 03:22 PM If enough BPCs are done this way, trashing something older (with a smaller screen) will really go out of style. tvcollector 06-19-2012, 04:23 PM Pour some salt in it, then pour some water in it, and watch it sizzle.. Take a blow torch and finish it off.. That is all.. Sandy G 06-19-2012, 06:31 PM Pour some salt in it, then pour some water in it, and watch it sizzle.. Take a blow torch and finish it off.. That is all.. You're an Eeeeeeville Man...I LOVE it...Mbwahahahahahaha... tvcollector 06-19-2012, 07:19 PM I don't know if anyone seen that guy on youtube that goes under "theoriginalhdchannel" he has alot of videos up smashing stuff like this up, while it's plugged in.. He took a golf club to a computer moniter while on, he hit the top of it, eventually necking the picture tube, and it ended up blowing the phosphor right off the screen.. |
