My Hoffmans have the channel tabs with the stations also, mine are from Los Angeles.

I don't know what the chassis is like on this one, probably similar.
They are really nice sets in my opinion.
This is exciting. When I go to pick up this set I will be anxiously awaiting the first sight of the CRT. Is it round is it rectangular? What is the number on the CRT? Is it Good? how strong is it? How do I get it into my car and drive away without giving away my excitement to this generous giver.. After I'm away for a few blocks I'll stop and just look at it and realize it's mine.
