First restoration of '09 A '63 Baby Blue Zenith B/W

[Adam]

I fixed the horiz problem in my set, a few resistors had drifted too high in value. I do like the blue better than the brown, and the paint on mine isn't in that good of condition, maybe if I ever find another crt for it, I'll repaint it the blue. I also like the looks of those "three pointed" tuning knobs.

I think it's sort of cool to watch TV the way they did back in the '60's.[/QUOTE]

I like those knobs too, I'm glad you got yours working. Can I see a pic? Go ahead and post it here if you want. Brown isn't bad but I like the blue better too, I've been watching this blue one everyday since I fixed it. I have a '58 metal cabinet Zenith set in a two tone brown and tan that looks really cool. It is too bad that one day some laundry detergent got on the side somehow and faded a small spot at the bottom, I'm thinking of airbrushing some matching paint on that spot. It is the only flaw on it.
