Cool $10 dollar find(s)

The set is working beautifully now. It seems that while I was resoldering the tube sockets, a small amount of solder dripped onto two pins of the burst amp between the Plate and Cathode. This kept color sync pulses from reaching the 3.58 oscillator. Cleaned the short up, touched up the reactance coil, and we have color!

I then adjusted the vert height and linery, AGC, Greyscale, drives, and convergence. This thing puts out a good picture for a base model set. Its a shame the volume pot is trash. It may not be the best build quality, but the results are good, and I learned a few things on the way.

The screen shot was taken from KSWB san diego, 20 miles east of the station and without an antenna. The tuner in this set is fairly good.
