Johnny's B&W
Saturday i got a call from an aquaintance whom has collected radios,televisions, juke boxes, cars and and a kitchen of the 50's modernizm with all of the appliances from that era. The call was a about a 1968 Sears b&w made by Westinghouse. After removing the dust the set would not turn on, it was dead. i took the set and had a look, maybe one of the tube filaiments was open? so i decided to check the tubes starting with the horizontal output, i pulled the tube to find a pin missing one on the end of the pin configuration meaning now there are two ways to plug the tube in.
The missing pin had no connection in the tube and it tested good on the tester so i took a good look plugged in the tube, It works and here is Johnny's set. It was pobably a spare tv with few hours with all original tubes and parts! ![]() All original parts and tubes. ![]() Notice the pristine yellow paint labeling the horizontal and damper tubes, This set has had very little usage!. ![]() ![]()
