2 Generals (plus)

[bgadow]

I thought I would post a few things I've been working on. These are all part of the lot that I got last year from JCFitz.

First up is a GE C-2 hybrid, 18", built in the fall of 1971. (It was being built the same time I was!) I had previously posted regarding a problem where the brightness was too high and could not be turned down. JC remembered the set and knew that the screen controls (one of those 3-in-one units that GE loved) were bad. I replaced them with 3 individual pots-not real pretty but it works. I still can't get things set up just right but they are much better. The color on this set is pretty poor. Someday I'll have another stab at it, when I need a challenge! These things have got to be the bottom of the barrel as far as serviceability. I get a headache just looking at that chassis. How about that radiation warning sticker?! I figured this was fallout (pun intended!) for the General selling some tv sets that produced to much radiation back in the late 60s.
