I picked this little fellow up at the thrift for only $2.99 Canadian. It works fine but the picture has a greenish tint to it no matter how you adjust the colour. manual or using the auto picture.
Its missing the picture button but you can swap the power button to change the settings. has a small chunk of the housing out of the left side. Its scratchy in the controls but I am sure some deoxit or nutrol will clean that up.
I took it to a local repair shop but the fellow said it was not worth looking at and said he had an RCA 12inch to sell me for $50.00.
I think he just wanted the sale.
Now is this worth fixing up? I like the Trinitrons and learned by reading posts in these forums that they have one of the best pictures.
I now have a fellow in line that used to work for a TV repair service for many years that is now retired. Should I take it to him or is this going to be a money pit?
Thanks
