1962 Setchell-Carlson 23" B&W TV/stereo

[radiotvnut]

At an estate sale in Meridian, MS, they had this 23" Setchell-Carlson B&W TV/stereo combination from 1962, and they initially wanted $200 for it, but today was half-price day and I bought it, only because it was an S-C with the modular chassis, those were not popular around here, and the chances of me finding another one are basically zero. For whatever reason, the homeowners used an out-of-town estate sale company who I've never dealt with before (had it been one of the local ones that I deal with, they would have likely told me to either just take it or give us $20 and it's yours). The radio has two separate AM/FM dials, likely for the purpose of early stereo broadcasting, where one channel would be sent over AM and the other channel over FM. I have not checked the jug, and I'm a bit afraid to because it seems like the more I pay for a set increases the chances of the jug being bad. Had this been a "run-of-the-mill" combo, I would have left it with them and based on an old service sticker, this thing once lived in New York.
