Admiral 20X11 restoration

Just curious - where did you find those cheater cords? It's not like you can go to Wal Mart and buy em.

Thanks! I have to give credit for the hot water tip to Tom Albrecht This is the first time I've tried it and it worked even better than I expected

I got lucky on eBay last year. I think I paid $4 each for a few Belden cords from a seller that had dozens. I also scored a 20 assortment pack.

Maybe try setting up a search on eBay for "cheater cords" with email alerts. I'm sure some will pop up eventually.

Another excellent restoration project Bob, I've been following this one on You Tube as well... You must be seeing Admiral TV's behind your eyelids by now when you close them!
Out of curiosity how big are these sets dimension wise? I'm guessing they're quite compact going by the pictures...
Great stuff anyway, I always enjoy your posts/videos.
Cheers Glen
