I got one just like that from my neighbor, in 2009 after the DT transition. Since 1978, it was NOT repaired, and lived at a hunting cabin upstate and stayed on 12-WBNG, the only channel receivable. All it needed was vertical height adjusted!
I gave them a Magnavox 19" BPC with converter box and new HB antenna and mast amp in exchange.
Yes, they still get only one channel there. It just takes a much better antenna to do it.
When I saw these and the CCII hit the curb during college in the 80's, I always picked them up. The CRTs were always good or easily awoken. I sold them for $100-125.
I think the first one in 1971 was a chassis 4B25C19 and the last was a 19DC22, before CCII in 1974. Thanks for the build info Doug!
