Congratulations Polaraman.

Lilburn a scant 100+ miles from Columbus. Have a pleasant drive collecting that beautiful CTC-9. I'll bet they have some original paper work. Ask about it.

Here is the "Caulfield" version of the same set. It just keeps running and running.

Polara, Dave, those are both some real handsome sets. Something to be proud of.

I just got home with the CTC 9. It is in MINT shape! The only scratches on it are around the controls. It still has a 21CYP22 CRT. I will be testing it tomorrow. If it is bad I will just send it out to be rebuilt. A little melted wax on the flyback. I obtained a Thordarson replacement if I should need it. There were three repair tags in the set. The last one was dated in 1980. I will post pics of the chassis. Some of the caps have been replaced with orange drops. I could only see two black beauties left. Have to order the lytics tomorrow.

Gorgeous set, Polaraman.

I gradually woke up the CRT. I did not want to run it at the 6.3 volts right off. Well it is GREEN on all three guns.

Well that is one hurdle that we had to clear. I ordered the new lytics. Will have to wait for them to come in. This Tv is on the front burner for me.

chassis looks just like my ctc-10 - minus a lot more dust and all the remote control rigamarole!...Frenchy

Frenchy,

It looks a lot like my CTC 11 also.

Below is what I found on the CRT. Is this kosher or should I be doing something else?

The cap on the 3A3 was corroded fast to the tube. I will have to replace the cap. Half way through testing the tubes and only found a bad 12BY7 so far. The 6GH8's are next.
