That's interesting about the stamp under the chassis, I was wondering what that was. I do like to use the real sprague caps, but I don't use them all the time, I can't always find room for them under some chassis.

I'm not interested in too many solid state sets. But a B/W Zenith in a metal cabinet is one I would really like to find, particularly one of the earlier ss sets that still used the hand wired chassis.
IIRC, the metal cabinet SS B&W that I had used a chassis similar to the one in my "new" 19" Zenith.

If I knew now what I knew then, I'd have quite a collection of interesting TV's! Back then, TV's were just something for me to pick up, repair, and resell so I'd have some spending money. It seems like those old sets were common as dirt one minute and hard-to-find the next.
