It's the Merrill's younger, simpler, and probably punkish brother.

Not nice, Nick!

Here is a town that should be FULL of them, though:

If it's the 31" Merrill, then I have a nearly new (3 hours of use) CRT with a ding in the screen glass that would fit it.

I got suckered too. I thought the image would never load fast enough.

Another Merrill, after whom the CT-100 was most likely named, as he was a close friend of Sarnoff. Anyone have any definitive info on this?
