RCA TA-129
#1

Well, here are a couple pictures of thise beast. It was about all my dad and I could do to get this thing up the steps and into the building. On the plus side it looks to be about compete with only a couple wires to repair. It also has an odd, one switch remote plugged into a socket on the back of the chassis. I've seen those sockets on other RCA TV chassis, but this is the first one I have found with something attached! There does seem to be a rare thing about this set, it appears that the CRT is attached to the chassis, meaning that the radio/TV chassis and tube can be pulled out in ONE unit. Heavy, yes, but it makes it easier to work on as the CRT and yoke can stay attached.

   

   

No matter where you go, there you are.
