Does anyone have any experience with this television? I also need a schematic for this if anyone could point me in the right direction. I just bought it today and checked it out. It doesn't seem to have been worked on before and it has been in storage for a long time. I believe it might be from 1960 or so. Thanks in advance.

I had the Halo-lite version of that set (sold it after I got a remote Halo-lite). It's basically a series string dualette chassis stuffed in a console....very light weight very cheap and mostly PCB based.
They can work decent. They use a lot of 100uF lytics and you have to unscrew a choke, the vertical or audio output transformer (I forget which) to change some of the paper caps on the PCB.
Given your cabinet is smaller than mine was that set must be super light weight.
The manual is Sams 509-2. See if you can find the original
printing, the PDF & XEROX usually suck.
