Not remote basic TV. Custom series chassis probably uses
9-181 & 9-186 for main chassis. Reliable sets. Made way
before the CRT problems so a good bet.

You are correct sir! chassis B2510PN . upon seeing the set the picture looked dim but got brighter after letting it play for 30mins. I told them i couldn't buy it with a dim pic but they came down to $20 and i figured worse case i could strip out the boards if someone needed them for a good crt set. Upon getting it home i figured i'd play with it a bit to see how good i can make it look. the main problem is there is too much green. i found 3 pots colored R, B and G i can barely get the green low enough to make a white image. is this a symptom of a weak tube or is there a board problem, here are some pics of the tiny chassis "my how they changed in 10 years from the vertical CC2 chassis.
