yep the 15 clone, nice find, esp nice with a good CRT :thmbsp:

if its like every other RCA and Clone, check those jumper wires that run along the top of the chroma board. I have had several that corrode and break right at the board. goes to the big power resistors in the chroma circuit. Also I would bet the .01 brown drop that is between the 6GU7 and the power resistor is weak. Not that it has to be replaced but I would replace it anyway.

If nothing prevents me from attending the ETF, then you have a potential customer for one of those Zenith roundys.

That's a cool set, The GE roundies don't show up too often. I too have been guilty of the "oh, I already had that one for a while" line:D My wife rolled her eyes and shook her head.:) :rolleyes:

Charlie 09-15-2012 03:27 AM

That's an awesome set! I like that style cabinet. And as ZF1 pointed out, we don't see these in GE's often.

You've picked up quite a few sets in a short period of time! You'll be running low on real estate before long! :D
