there is no comparison to that old tired CTC-16 and almost any repairable CTC-9 in terms of value. i am not trying to come across as anything close to an expert. jus reviewin what i think i have seen/read
It may be a common set in certain parts of the country especially around big cities but this Delmarva.Lots and lots of rural area and most beach and fishing areas.The oldest sets I found even in the mid 80s when I searched out tvs were late 60s Zeniths and early 70s hybrids unless they were being sold by an antique dealer.

Philly is barely within reasonsable driving distance for me.I've driven farther for a jukebox but as you said this is a low value tv of unknown condition that may have a lot of hours on it.I think Bryan Gadow has an impressive collection for being in this area but he gets around more than I do and has been collecting tvs for years. I sold or gave away all I had until recently when I got interested in old sets again.I still don't have any room.
