the kids got to hear static and the high pitched whine, but it now is just furniture for a center speaker.

I’ll try to get it fixed eventually!

    I have two 19" CRT monitors in boxes in my basement and one late-model (new enough for ATSC) but cheap CRT TV, but I kinda wish I also had some TV old enough to have a mid-century modernist wooden chassis.

      No you don’t. Them old tube TVs take a lot of tubes that just don’t exist anymore. And they weren’t all that reliable even when new.

        Okay, I wish I had a wooden TV chassis that I could transplant more modern electronics into.
