I have a couple sets with that chassis. A miserable TV to work on, if you ask me. The older of the pair has a terrible, terrible picture; the newer one, not much different from the one listed, is not too bad. Once I had one of these rebadged as "Bradford" (W.T.Grant house brand) If anyone is down this way and wants one just let me know. I won't pay you to take them...but I will load them for free!

Well, I see the one on epay sold for $1. I wonder if an AK member got it? The more I think about it; I may have worked on a similar GE model. Is that the chassis that is constructed on a PC board and housed in a plastic (not metal) frame? I think they also had a plastic piece that slid out from under the chassis for ease of servicing. As far as GE pictures, I never was too crazy about them. Even the early '70's solid state GE's were not that great. I think a Motorola would be better. Some of the later GE tube sets and the SS sets from the late '70's on had a somewhat decent picture. My favorite GE chassis was the PC solid state chassis from the '80's. About the only thing that went wrong with them were caps in the vertical circuit and the power supply. But, most of those today are found with weak CRT's. Those sets are between 20 and 25 years old now.
