THIS WAS A CURBSIDE FIND IN WARREN, OHIO. THE THERMISTOR IN THE DEGAUSS CIRCUIT WAS TOAST. I BYPASSED IT (FOR NOW). THE RED GUN IN THE CRT WAS TOAST. I REPLACED THE CRT, AND STILL HAVE THE OLD ONE (TO EVENTUALLY BE REBUILT). THE TV CHASSIS WILL GET A FULL RECAP. THE RADIO IS FINE. THE TURNTABLE IS TOAST. SOMEONE TRIED TO "FIX" IT AND RUINED IT. THE TV PLAYS DECENTLY, BUT WILL BE GREAT AFTER RECAPPING. THIS SET IS NOT AT MY CURRENT LOCATION. SINCE IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I LAST HAD IT ON, I WILL DO A PROPER SOFT START. I THINK ALL I WILL NEED TO REPLACE ARE THE ELECTROLYTICS. THIS SET USES MYLAR CAPS, WHICH ARE USUALLY RELIABLE. I WILL REPLACE ANY SUSPECT ONES. I WILL ALSO REPLACE THE PARTS I NEED TO MAKE THE DEGAUSSER WORK. LAST TIME I HAD THIS ON, THE PICTURE WAS NICE AND BRIGHT. I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE SOCKET ON THE CRT. THE ONE ON IT NOW IS CRUMBLED. I HAVE A BRIGHTNER WHICH WILL BE THE DONOR. I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN I WILL RESTORE THIS. |
