Hi All,

Thanks for the suggestions.
I picked the TV up this morning and I cannot believe the condition its in.
There is some of the lettering missing on the channel selectors and one of the knobs is missing the level inducator but the cabinet itself has no marks or dents in it
It generally looks like it came out of the factory yesterday.

I did find that the picture was a little too fuzzy, even after letting the tube heat up.
The RF connector on the back seems to be a little loose so I'm guessing this is probably the reason?
A simple fix if the modulator in the TV is loose?
