Starting in TVs?

[electroking]

Hello again VintagePC! Good to see you kicking around! I trust you'll be able to
find a good TV project. As someone else mentioned, a mid-fifties to early sixties
21-incher should be something nice and fairly easy to work on. There were some
fairly well built Canadian sets. For instance the one in my avatar is a 1960
Electrohome with a 110-degree (or 114, I would have to check) picture tube
(actually purchased by my parents in 1961, and in the family ever since). I
also have a similar set (built by the same company but branded Viking and sold
by Eaton's) from 1956, with a 90-degree tube.

Both are projects awaiting restoration, although the Electrohome still works,
but with vertical sweep issues. I am also fortunate to have a spare rebuilt
CRT for this set, while the other one has a like-new factory picture tube.
I was told by the previous owner that it was last turned on in 1963 for
the Kennedy funeral, and was then replaced with a smaller portable set, just
sitting in a corner of the living room for over four decades. Maybe you'll be
lucky to find something similar not too far from home.

As for your earlier radio project, I do have some documentation and I
would be happy to discuss with you if it can help. Best regards.
