Bryan,

The CRT is a Quasar made in the USA. It has a sticker with a NOV 1977 build date. I would think it is the one that came with the set. I plugged it in and gave it a try. It had a nice but unstable color picture. I can't seem to stop the verticle roll. I will have to loo at that later. The only real draw is the CRT but I may keep it around because of the remote control option.

I was curious because I had a 74 Motorola Quasar and the EIA number on the crt came back to Westinghouse, of all companies. I then had a US built Panasonic from 79 with a Japanese built tube. Wasn't sure if Matsushita ever had a tube plant here, at least in those years.

I have some of those type of Sony 3/4 inch machines both players and recorders I was able to get when a TV station was junking old equipment.
I ouught to get them out and use them, they've been in a closet for ages! I would say they date from late 70's to early 80's.
