$199 but worth it if the CRT is good.

Really? I passed one of these up on CL last year when picking up a clean Zenith 10S464 console. A clean, one-family, two-owner set...it was a monster. Had a the same AM/FM radio in it as the eBay set. Super clean and original cabinet. At the time, I mentioned it in a ARF post regarding the Zenith to see if anyone else was interested in it, and no one was... http://antiqueradios.com/forums/view...115565&start=0

I want to say that they wanted under $100 for the CL DuMont set.

There is a 1947 DuMont RA-101A model, Sherwood cabinet listed on the ETF classifieds http://www.earlytelevision.org/classifieds_postwar.html. It weighs over 500 lbs. If I weren't putting all my TVs in storage I would think about it. Chuck A. has a similar dumont on his website: http://www.myvintagetv.com/dumont_101a.htm

The 109 listed in the Craigslist ad is an FM only set. I have one in great condition. Paid less than half that. The AM-FM ones have a dial on each side of the knobs.

"Probably just needs power tubes", whatever that means. Also about 80 caps and a few resistors, and maybe a CRT.
