Certainly is a cute TV. I like the 7" televisions. I have a Motorola VT-71 (or 73, can't remember
) and I hope to get it to the bench soon. Don't know if the CRT is good. Wish me luck!

So, have you had a chance to work on that TV yet? It is rather complicated. And, I hope the 7JP4 is good. They are scarce...

It smells like........ old tv.

So, do we have fierce debate on this forum about:
To replace the selenium, or to not replace the selenium? I will stick my neck out. I replace them because I don't care to deal with it later....

I think that it might be best to stuff the selenium rectifier with
a 1N4007. That will keep it looking original.

Robert, your TV has tons of caps... wow... I'd hate to have to replace all of those. I think I better just stick to restoring record players and small radios.

Re: Emerson tv set...my first
Just to get some controversy brewing...........are you going to replace that selenium rectifier?
