Needs come cleaning but not in bad shape for 36 years old.
Stereo works great, But will need to check the tv out.

Glad you got the set home. Here is a pic of my Space Command 600!

P.s. That pic is where I found the set. It took a little effort to get it out of its resting place!

Now that is a cool set Polaraman! Looks like my 1967 model that has no remote but the same front panel and "electric" tuning.

Well, I finally got the set working decent after replacing what seemed like dozens of parts!
First, The crt was toast. In went a nos one. Then about eight shorted or weak tubes. Lastly, The boost voltage was at 500 when it needed to be at 1200. Traced that to a leaky .01uf 1500v disk cap.
With all that done and purity, Static and Dynamic convergence set, It looks pretty good. Now for that non working remote....
