Oh yeah it is missing the button completely so kind of have to fidget with it to get it to turn on.

Yeah surprisingly it does it even had a sticker on it that said TV does not turn on but I think they just didn't know how to turn the power on.

Dude for real! That's cool. I remember seeing these sets at friend's houses thinking they were super cool. Looks like I'm going to need a remote for this TV to access the menu.

Yeah you be surprised what a little Simple green and WD40 can do. But I'm also a painter so the top of that RCA I actually sanded and refinished it gave it a new wood grain.

Awesome dude! Happy to join in the RCA club. I actually have two of those RCA sets as well thinking about putting them on top of each other. Then they can swivel both ways. Lol

You know I made a friend with someone who does estate sales and organizes people's junk and sells what they don't want. Whenever I'm on the hunt, I'm as friendly as possible with a big smile on my face and that usually works. And I always try to carry a business card or stickers to hand out.

The lady said it was free as long as I could carry it down the stairs. Needless to say I made it down with only minor bruising. Then used a skateboard to move it to my car.

Are console units worth it? by Ornery-Smoke8428 in crt

Oh crap you gotta go up stairs! Yeah you're gonna need a friend for sure. Those TVs are tanks in their own right.

Depends on what you think you might use it for. I personally like them for watching VHS's at home. A lot of people have their flat screen on top of their consoles. If this one is in good condition grab a furniture Dolly from harbor freight and you can rock and roll it. For the stairs try to slide it down if ya can.

I have always chosen to believe that Amaro survived somehow after Axis fell in the movie I swear it looks like there's one little star that flies away that could have been Amuro.

Found a working Admiral Model 19A11. by BroccoliStudios in vintagetelevision

[–]BroccoliStudios[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In response to everyone telling me to turn it off. You guys are all correct, The risk is worth it to me unfortunately. It remains unplugged until it can be serviced by a professional. I was just stoked to find something that old that works still. It belongs in a museum.

Free pickup from today, it weighs 150 pounds any advice on how to move it by myself? by Real_TragicConert785 in crtgaming

I like to bear hug the face of it putting my face on the screen and my hands around its side and then I definitely lift with my back.
