Here are the pics, The one where the screen is blue is what I got when I first powered it up. I was not impressed to say the least! After an hour or so of setting the controls and testing tubes the picture got somewhat better, but still needs a lot of work. All of the pots are full of carbon and gunk so no adjustment is easy, I will have to carefully take apart each one and clean it. I'm also sure a few are too bad to save i.e. the vertical linearity control. The other thing I was sad to see was that crappy CRT brightener, I removed it {it wasn't doing much good anyways} there is a great deal of blooming with this set, brightener or not. Tube is very dim And chassis has quite a bit of mold But I will fix it up and make it worth what I waste... I mean spent on it.
