[NJARC] Estate sale - Stromberg Carlson TV

[Louis]

Hi Joe, I agree, it might not be possible to actually get the set 
working or will require some very heavy lifting. I read about Marv 
Beeferman's efforts, in the March Broadcaster, on restoring his 
Hallicrafters T-505.

But I think most people would only want it for the "look". The sellers 
look at it as an antique and I guess they think it "must" be valuable. 
The sale is only a mile from me so I'll stop by and take a look, plenty 
of old items to check out.

If the TV's picture tube or flyback transformer is shot, you're sort of stuck, unless the set is worth the time and effort of finding a replacement. Don't forget that these TVs, even when new, required a lot of service calls.
