I've seen the 130 in higher end 20" sets as well as 25"/26" console and table models. The 130 was still in production when Thomson took over. To be fair, I've seen more 130's than 121's. The 121's that I saw usually needed simple repairs like connections in the tuner resoldered or shorted diodes in the power supply (probably due to lightning).

Thank you so much for this information. Any clue what was the previous chassis of the CTC-121? I guess it's made in 1979-1982. Is it any better?
