Thanks DavG.... I'll keep it in mind.... Neighbor sent over a 17" Sony today, he got a new flat tv.... My 4 tube hybrid did have the wood trim, I got it from the rca dealer when I was in college and repairing and selling trade in tv's for pizza & book money. So I fixed it and watched it for a while before selling it. It had such a good picture I almost kept it....
Got one of those portholes in the spare room I designated as "the basement" the house has no actual basement, so I made one up....

Trust me on this, A clean, working Porthole will get more compliments & "Wow!s" than almost ANY other of yr sets, except a good, working Roundie...People LOVE their looks, their age, & the fact they are about 180 degrees different than the ugly grey-black plastic box that sets in the corner, or even worse, hangs on the wall...Kids, especially, flip out over 'em..

One can never have too many Zeniths. Here's my lineup:
3 color roundies, all restored. 1 rectangular color (12A12C52 with remote) 2 17" post porthole rectangular (restored) 1 21" tabletop restored 1 21" console. restored but has vertical issues. 1 17" console, with top mounted fly. unrestored. cabinet needs serious work. 1 17" bugeye. has boost issue. otherwise OK. 1 rectangular color combo. restored. will need variac start since I have not fired it up since 2009. I think I need a few more Zeniths. I am saving a 12LP4 and 16GP4 for that elusive porthole.

Portholes are so neat looking, they never saw a curb. I never saw one out in my 35 years of lookin' anyway.
There HAS to be one in a dusty antique shop somewhere.....I'm looking when I can, but all these places in PA seem to have everything BUT electronics and when they do its way overpriced. BTW my Zenith TV Count is 7 and climbing
