I picked this one up about a week ago, it was a local find. Another one of those robust late model 14N22 B&W consoles. Still works fine and wasn't used a whole lot over the years. This one is from 1970. The guy I got it from bought it from the estate of the original owner in Chicago about 2 years ago. He only used it as a prop in his barber shop in the city, then got bored of it and flipped it on craigslist. So now I have it...

I recently had the '69 version, but always preferred the layout of the '70 model much more with the "T" shaped tuning knobs.

Another Great Find !
You Go Boy ! !

I was gunna ask this once, and I may have, and forgotten..... What are those wings
on the right and left of the yoke ? Is that a touch-up for width, or shaping
at the far edges of the screen....?

IIRC, they called rastor correction magnets or pin-cushion correctors. I don't remember ever adjusting them. :scratch2:

I'll have to look at the one I have! I also don't remember the focus control. I thought the pot on the chassis rear was the width control, but I see the width sleeve around the CRT neck.
The set appears to have never been repaired, except for the horiz osc tube with the red printing.. :scratch2:

Nice set and that chassis was, IMHO, the best tube B&W chassis built by anyone, at any time. I still have the '69 Version and it still works fine. Some of you may recall me buying it from a local thrift store. That was the situation where I got so pissed off at the price and their attitude that I went back in there and bought the set with loose change.

Wow, near mint condition !. Great find.

Really nice set, I wish I could find a Zenith like that. As a matter of fact I wish I could find a Zenith period. I have yet to come across a single Zenith TV or radio. I had one guy bring me a TV for repair and that the only one I have seen in my area.

Damn fine looking set, and a really nice contemporary cabinet that will look great anywhere. Nice score!

About 35 years ago I worked at some toilet of a small company that made a machine that took the video output from a CAT scanner, and made hard copy on Xray film. Intended for doctors who were used to keeping stuff on Xray film. The machine had a B&W video monitor inside, and a lens system and camera for exposing the image onto the Xray film. One thing they wanted was no geometric distortion in the image on the CRT, so they had technicians with magnets and hot glue place magnets on the yoke and CRT bell to correct distortions. It was crude.

It was a standard issue job at a typical company that made a boring product...
