I SCORED THIS AT THE 2005 ETF CONVENTION.  DuMONT SETS WERE CONSIDERED TOP OF THE LINE PRIOR TO THE TAKEOVER BY EMERSON. 

 THIS SET USESTHE 19AP4 METAL CRT.  DuMONT ALSO OFFERED THIS SERIES WITH A 17" RECTANGULAR CRT.  THIS USES THE MALLORY INDUCTUNER AND HAS PROVISIONS FOR A PHONO.  THE FM BAND CAN BE RECIEVED BETWEEN CHANNELS 6 AND 7.

I SOFT STARTED THIS AND GOT SOUND.  THE HIGH VOLTAGE WAS A FRACTION OF WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.  THIS WILL NEED A COMPLETE RECAP.  THE CABINET WILL ALSO NEED REFINISHED.  AFTER RECAPPING, I WILL USE A 5AXP4 TEST CRT FOR ANY DEBUGGING.  THE METAL TUBE WILL STAY IN THE CABINET.  I BELIEVE I WILL ALSO NEED TO REPLACE MICA CAPS IN THE SOUND IF CANS. 

I DO NOT KNOW WHEN I WILL RESTORE THIS ONE.
