Worth every penny, unique set. I can think of at least 3 guys in N.VA who could save it, if they wanted to. Oh, I could do it, too. It would be an all-day thing, and include dealing with DC traffic. And in the end, I have no room for it, and the set would be that much further away from anyone else who might be able to give it a home. I do hope this one gets saved...not junk.

I see your point, we can't save em all but it does get upsetting to watch people destroy things like that. I too have driven all over the country for the sake of tv sets, I saw a lot of interesting things along the way. I rode with Bob Galanter through 6 states to get tv sets. In fact he is the one getting radiotvnuts old CTC 4 from MS! I went to Kansas to get my avatar. I say most are willing to travel in other words. The reason we get upset is because we see them being destroyed and would be willing to drive or ship them to get them.

A video of a drunken moron, trying to find a way to make himself feel good about his existence.

If this topic is this popular, I'll make a YouTube video of how a Sony Bravia XBR 46" LCD TV can withstand being run over by a Caterpillar D9... I have both

Geez, Charles, a Cat? That's too much!
Okay, let's try this: yesterday my wife took my pickup to work so one of her coworkers could give me a tv set. It's pretty much what I expected, which is to say, something I'm not interested in. Well, it was free, and I didn't want to say no. It's an '84 Zenith System 3 Space Command console. I assume it works but I really don't know. These sets could still put out a stunning picture, from my experience. So, anybody want it? If not, I have a rubber mallet, I have a hammer... well, I wouldn't really do that...at least not if it works! I can't really conceive of anybody out there in AK TV Land wanting it...one sunny day this week I may just leave it out on the curb and see if there are any takers. I would post a picture but, hey, we all know what it looks like, right?

Sorry this is a bit OT (maybe not since I am traveling to get an old TV)....
------------------------------------ Hey Doug, Give me a call when you can. I am leaving for GR at 6 AM, plan to leave there at 10-ish. I obviously need your address.

What are you trying to do Chris? The guy is trying to prove a point that nobody will make a drive to pick up old TV's. I realize you're only about to drive 650 miles round trip. You're going against the grain on this one.......Now the statistics are all F'ed up.

In the spirit of fairness, I only plan to violently destroy it for a youtube video (outside so I don't ruin a lamp this time).
