THIS WAS A SCORE FROM THE 2010 EARLY TELEVISION SILENT AUCTION. I GOT IT CHEAP. I GOT IT FOR THE BLONDE FINISH. THE SWIVEL STAND HAS A LOUDSPEAKER IN IT. THERE IS A FLIP DOOR ON TOP WHICH HIDES THE CONTROLS. THERE IS ALSO A PHONO JACK IN BACK, A COMMON RCA FEATURE AT THE TIME.
THE CRT WAS INITIALLY DEAD. A LONG COOK BROUGHT IT BACK. I DID SOFT START IT. I ONLY HAD A PICTURE WHEN THE HORIZONTAL WAS OFF FREQUENCY. FOR RESTORATION, I WILL USE THE 8XP4 TEST CRT. ALL PAPER AND ELECTROLYTIC CAPS WILL BE REPLACED. THE NEXT TWO SHOTS ARE BEFORE ANY RESTORATION.
RESTORATION WILL BE EASY. I WILL CLIP THE CAPS, AND HOOK THE NEW ONES TO THE EXISTING LEADS. I WILL RESTUFF THE CANS AND FUSE THE POWER SUPPLY FROM THE 5U4 TO THE FIRST FILTER.
CHASSIS AFTER RECAPPING. I DON'T REMEMBER HAVING ANY ISSUES AFTER RECAPPING.
