Checked it out today.....

And it does KINDA work. I get HV, the power tuner works, sound(with some buzz) and a picture of sorts. the CRT appears to be good, (a 19cxp4, I think) and original. It produces an acceptably bright picture.

However, I CANNOT get the vertical to stop rolling or fold over. It will roll one way, then the other, and "stop", but PART of the picture will be flashing over the other, and I hear the VO transformer buzzing with the flashing of the picture.

But all in all, not a bad find. Some rust on the top(as the pictures show,) but the chassis is NOT bad, only dirty(VERY). I suspect this thing has sat for 30 or more years since last fired.
