I built a Heathkit GR 2001 as part of a National Technical School training course and completed it in 1979. Mounted it in a nice Heathkit console. (pictures avaialbe on request) The TV worked great. Fortunately, or unfortunately when you build a TV yourself, and have all the manuals, schematics and the diagnostic meter they give you, each time you have a problem one can generally fix it with a $0.99 part from Radio Shack. Somebody mentioned in a previous post, that these sets had a problem with the high voltage, it was usually a transistor that controlled the vertical height. When mine went out for the third time in the early 90's I used it as an opportunity to convience my wife to buy a 32 inch set and have kept the GR 2001 in my barn since. I really need to clean out my barn, but hate the idea of watching it crushed in a landfill. Too much love and sweat went into it. Anybody interested I'll deliver it to a 100 mile radius of the Sacramento, CA Area. Others will have to make some other arraingments. You will get the GR 2001 with the original remote control, assembly instructions and trouble shooting manuals, and a Zennith MTS stereo decoder. As Zennith developed the standard for stereo, and the GR 2001 was the first set to take advantage of it, I purchased this set top box to enhance the system.

I'd love this set to have a nice home, I'm just outgrowing the space I have. Email "[email protected]" if ou have any guestions.
