CTC-5 parts

[Stlouisian]

I was wondering if any one had extra parts for my CTC-5 Arliss. Somehow I am missing a bracket and of course the Yoke cover is gone because of the plastic they used at time disintegrates over time. This web site https://antiquetvguy.com/FramesetPag...FrameSet1.html Shows how a new yoke cover is but I do have the equipment to make one. I have already recapped the set. And just need to put it together to see it will work. Also restringing the tuner. My dad years ago bought dial cord. He liked radios and liked TV's. Also attached is a picture of the bracket. Thanks for any help.

The yoke back cover is easy...ACE hardware sells a whitish and translucent 1gal paint can plastic snap cover (it's bigger around than the factory lids on the can as it's meant to wrap over the outside of sides of the can)...For RCA 21CT55s, CTC-4 s CTC-5s and Motorola 21CT2 sets I take one of those lids cut out a center neck hole paint it black and if theres any metal rings that revit into the cover I pick the remanants of the old cover out of the revit, center the original metal ring on the lid then hit the side of the lid opposite of the revit with a soldering iron to melt the spot over the revit so I can squish it onto the revit...The results are fairly hard to distinguish from factory, and the only tools you need are scissors and a soldering iron.

Thanks for the information is appreciated. I found out that Ace hardware no longer carries the 1 gallon lid. I got one off of Bucket lids web page. It is made by the same manufacture.

I recognize that bracket, but checked my stash and don't have one. Reminded myself that I don't have any spare CTC-5 mounting parts since I replaced the temp substitute glass tube with a 21AX.

Looks like one of the static dag grounding fingers that go around the CRT boot, there’s more than one so don’t stress too much if one isn’t there.

Update: I discovered I have a CRT insulator from a 5 kicking around the garage, and it still has those brackets on it. Pay postage, I’ll send them your way. PM for details.
