I like how you always show the before and after....it's alot more interesting to watch than someone restoring a set with no baseline. I hope there's going to be a follow up on this to address the other issues, like the picture rolling.

That looks like the chassis of the TV I had in high school in the late 60’s. Same chassis layout. The picture tube was a 17DQP4.

I have a set from 2002 that loves red. Everything red is bleeding. I know you will call this a black plastic crap set but it is a surprisingly good set. It uses the trinitron type tube even though it is an rca TV. It will have a dim picture for about 40 minutes and then has fairly weak color. It went from great to this in 5 days. I thing the picture tube is beginning to fail. I hope it goes so I can replace it with a digitally tuned crt TV.

Greetings: FYI: Horizontal and vertical hold controls both change the respective frequencies of their circuits, but you may not have known that both controls actually set the frequencies to be slightly under that of the incoming video. That allows the derived H & V pulses to prematurely force an end to the respective cycles before they would naturally end on their own. That's why the settings of too fast and too slow freq. have different reactions as the oscillators drift past the lock points. Just a thought.

I guess it's a toss up now of what to do, leave the new picture tube in the set, put the old and repaired tube back in, or keep the old one in storage in case you run into another set needing the same tube.

As time goes by replacement CRTs and electron tubes will be impossible to find making vintage electronic repair impractical. Guess that'll be true even with tube state radios and phonographs. Looks like a good strong CRT, no lingering dot! You are indeed lucky to get it.

8:20 These early portables were so slim; I think they gave up on the "portable" concept for TVs with bigger screens than 12" in the '80s some time; all the sets this size stuck out a foot in the back by that time. I wrecked a set like this one when I was about 3 by sticking coins in one of those little slots; must have thought candy or something would come out. I think that little hole in the top right corner is for the standby power on the Space Command models. I've never seen a set like this with UHF, but it has the position on the dial and the knockout for antenna hookups; would the dial have stuck out the side?
