One man's trash...
#3

Arran Wrote:Check the videos of a you tube user that uses the handle Drh, he has a video on how to fix the faceplate. It's called a cataract by the way, it's what happens when the polyvinylacetate bonding agent breaks down between the safety glass and the faceplate of the picture tube. By the way, what were the other three TVs that were dropped off?

Thanks. I've heard of some way to repair these before, but wrangling with a CRT always makes e nervous.
To answer your question, there was also a 13 inch Zenith from 1980 and a 19 inch Zenith from 1992. My friend got those and they both work fine. The final set was ANOTHER 1964 RCA New Vista Color set in a stereo-phono combination console that was about 8ft across. It is safely tucked away inside the appliance shop for now.

No matter where you go, there you are.
