You emailed someone on Kijiji and actually got an answer?

Anyway, looks pretty nice.

Those were/are great sets that didn't give a lot of problems. A few years ago, I fixed one for my friend who sells used stuff and he sold it at his flea market (probably one of the last knob-tuned TV's he sold). Now, we don't even bother trying to sell knob-tuned TV's. Instead, they all stay over here.

Try Kijiji Nova Scotia and see how far you get, if you can even find a decent older TV.

I'm pretty sure people in N.S. are still using these Analog sets...thats why you cant find any.... oh ? :finger::zoom:

Sometimes Im lucky to live in Toronto because there's much more of everything ! The U.S. has 10x more though !

By the way, Thrift stores here dont carry TV's any longer.. dont know about N.S.

I'm not sure what to think of that double-digit smiley, but even though our economy is terrible, many here use flat-panel sets, as well as the newest of everything else, and probably have a credit score to reflect it.

My thrift store probably wouldn't normally put out old sets due to lack of demand, but it is known that I'm into the older stuff, so I get first grab if I happen to be working that day.
