Just saw this set on my local craigslist.Looks like a good deal, but don't have the funds to pick it up. Anybody else here from VK locally that might be interested?:scratch2:http://raleigh.craigslist.org/ele/3197508801.html

Great set.
The Grundig "CUC" chassis are reliable and have an excellent video quality.

Wow, that's a neat looking tv. I'm a big Grundig fan and would love to have that.

Well, it's finally home!:D Except for a small crack on the back cover, it's in excellent shape.The original owner misplaced the euro av patch cord but said he would call me if he finds it. I wonder if they sell replacements here.:scratch2: For me,was it worth $45? I think so....:yes:

Here are a couple of cable sources:

I am not affiliated with either of them.

I have two Grundigs. They're both identical, strictly NTSC.
Have also have a few multi-standard sets, I picked though the years. It's kind of strange to see Cyrillic and Arabic on screen displays.
What a hobby! :thmbsp:

Yes you're correct. Multistandard sets are popular in northern Italy because we can receive the french broadcastings in SECAM. Several years ago I had a Monoltith with multistandard chassis, a real monster with 4 speakers - I sold it at one brazilian guy. Now he can receive broadcastings from all South America.

I bought one of my sets on Ebay. The shipping label on the box shows it came from some firm in Saudi Arabia. It's a 15" Samsung multi-standard.
