Duncan's 1960 Magnavox

[Mr.Duncan]

Picked up this beautiful 1960 Magnavox Console.

I've restored a few vintage tube radios in my past, but never a TV before!

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING appears to be original and untouched.

A few tubes have been replaced with GE units, and the 5U4GB is labeled "Japan"

I'm still learning here on my end, so any helpful advice, corrections, or input is always welcome!

A quick power up shows a decent picture!

I'm re-capping this set because the C2 4 section capacitor did blow out (overheated, swelled up, and popped) - causing loss of picture. The whole process took 2 seconds, and I shut the set off while the cap popped.
