FIRE! 1961 Zenith

[Kamakiri]

Sure did. Everything was fine in there, and as I mentioned, I used the snot out of that set. In fact, here's a shot of me, my son, and my cat curled up around the 1920s kerosene heater watching it during the blizzard back in January

The fact that you heard snapping AFTER you shut the set off, in this case, pretty much limited the issue to the line cord.

I'm just hoping the line voltage issue didn't do something to the flyback. Does anything happen on the screen when you hear snapping?

The white-faced General Instrument cable box and its matching LCC 58 remote make yet another photographic appearance. Very cool.

There was a NOS unit on eBay a while back but I didn't grab it dangit.
