[NJARC] RE: TV Kit

[Lenny Tamulonis]

Back around 1965, a friend bought a Heathkit color TV kit and successfully
put it together.  I didn't participate, but was astounded at the kits
complexity and his persevearance.    I don't remember how much it cost, but
it was a 6-month project.  Personally, I think Heathkit overdid it on that
one.

I recently reported on a radio kit I had repaired from the 1940s.  I was
talking to a relative who told me about a friend that built a TV from a kit
right after WWll.  He said it had a very small screen but the kit building
was successful as they used to watch the 'fights' on it back when they were
on network TV.  This really surprised me.  Does anyone had information on
post war TV kits?  Would like to hear some comments.  Nick Senker
