Tom, did you pick that set up at the ARCI Radiofest in Willowbrook? The swap was right by my house, but I wasn't able to get there until Sunday as I was working Sat. My friend Paul shot me a few photos of some of the TV's he found as he was there on Saturday, one being the Sears set as you must have been checking the tube right as he took the photo! LOL!

I used to have the exact same model about 10 years ago, but the radio component on mine didn't work. The radio had it's own little power transformer and it had an open primary. It was an easy fix as I just bought a cheap early 70's sanyo AM FM table radio on ebay which used the same little transformer and that fixed it.

There was also a Portacolor that had some wear and tear but passed. By the time I got there on Sunday morning, most of the vendors had packed up and left, but I did buy a few old electronics books from a guy right before he loaded up and took off. The same guy had a '78 Chromacolor II 19" table set sitting under the table for $25 bucks.
