It was a good day for color TV history, but don't worry there will be other opportunities in the future to view this one in the flesh. My hope is to have the entire thing ready and working for next years ETF, but we have a lot of work in front of us to get to that point.

That tube looks like it could have a great picture on it once a chassis is set up right for it. I think your money was wisely spent on this piece of history. Now, if that chassis can be made operational, I think people will be knocking on your door from states away to see it work!

That could be, Pete already drove 5 hours to see it!

If I can't make it to next years ETF for whatever reason, a video will be made to show the masses in the banquet hall. Probably be a good idea to have something better than my Handycam to take the pictures with, though.
