1957 RCA Color "Westcott" in WI
 

Listed on the Bay.

From the eBay listing:

This TV features the famous early production 21AXP22A round metal funnel picture tube that has the full NTSC Spec wide-color-gamut phosphors....

Nicely written description, but I personally am not yet ready to concede that a 21AXP22 has the same spectral response as the 15GP22 until we duplicate the conditions that were in place when we measured the 15GP22.

Not to mentiopn that the crt looks like it has a nearly dead blue gun. I contacted the seller and I am going to see the set in person. I will be taking along my crt tester and will test the crt if he allows me.

Condition of cabinet looks a bit iffy

This is close enough for me - but getting a fully operational set does not quite fit my desire to find a CRT for the set I have to restore.


Anyway, I may bid.
(decisions, decisions!)

That's my late 1956 RCA CTC-5 Westcott
 

Hello, won that late 1956 RCA CTC 5 Westcott on eBay over a year ago-I got the only one here in North Bay where there's nothing like this to be found.

Where did it go?

If you look at the original post..it was posted May 2008 :)

Geez......I gotta look at these damn things before I go and open my mouth.

Damn zombie threads- they always come back from the dead! :smoke:
