Zenith ccII from an estate sale

I remember changing some of those varactor tuner selectors because of noise. BTW, Zenith recommended to never spray the tuner switch with any type of cleaner.

That must of been a highly used set as the CRT looks tired, but adequate for its age. Those tv's really had great pictures for their day.

Why do you say it looks tired? There's one picture to go by and I'm not seeing any of the usual red flags like color bleeding.

From the pix the blue looks dominate. Turn the color off & see if the
screen looks bluish. Also the pix lacks snap. Could be all it needs is
a little touch up. In person its easy to tell with experiance, but pixs not so easy.

I'm just saying that because I remember how good the pictures looked on these sets. The photo looks like the CRT has some soft focusing and like Zeno pointed out the overall cast looks slightly bluish. However completely adequate for now. That's a vintage tv.

Some of the Chromacolor chassis had focus circuit issues....I always blame the focus circuit first and usually find I was right.
