A good 16EP4 can be a real stinker to find.

I'm definitely open to subbing in a different CRT if I can score one. I don't have any other 16" circular CRTs at the moment.

You got a nice looking TV. Cabinets of that vintage are exceptional.

Sorry, I haven't touched it yet. Actually, it's still out on the back porch. I have to finish off some other projects first and clear some room for it. Don't worry, I'll be sure to post plenty of details once I start on it.

Thanks. I live just a few miles from where this set was made and it still took me a few years to find one.
