This set has the same features as the foo-foo French-cabinet '67 Maggie I got about a year and a half ago from DRH. By the UHF UP/DOWN buttons, it looks like it also has automatic signal search, like mine. Doug said he had to work on it quite a bit to get the search functional. It works just about OK with the AFC engaged, but sometimes coasts a bit too far or not enough and you need to touch up the fine tuning.

Regarding dark picture, if you can't go through the setup procedure and get a normal result, and supply voltages are OK, try changing the video output tube - I found huge differences from tube to tube, probably because this tube runs nearly wide open with little cathode degeneration.
