Didn't get a chance to mention this, but hey... I'm in Phoenix!
I'll be out here until around March 10th. Short version:
Job layoff for two months. Decided to use the time to re-hab a house in a nice climate, rather than suffer through another MI winter. Got the house, now setting up minimal housekeeping (i.e. sofa/couch/pots/dishes).
Bought the required ol' Dodge truck to haul sheetrock with... AND...
Go to Sun City, AZ estate sales. Spent the whole day hitting them today, at least 5, all within 1-2 miles. TV finds as follows: (Sorry, forgot to write down model numbers)
A Sony "commercial" set, circa 1980. It's a 9" trinitron, but the cabinet looks like a 19"'! Seems very overbuilt and good quality. Lots of video inputs. Great shape, works. Available for trade!
A 19" RCA XL-100, 1980-ish? This will be my daily watcher, but I thought I should try to save something old rather than buy some more chinese missle parts. I did buy a '13-inch Durabrand' from Wally World, but I'll return this piece of crap now that I've bought something else on the cheap. (And won't feel 10 seconds of guilt)
I also spotted a 25" Star system Magnavox, in a beautiful cabinet, FREE. Appeared to have no HV. Didn't take it, (no room, truck full). However I did grab the cool chrome/burl wood remote.
All for now...
