Here it is! ... it's a great and helpful video but, it's a bit difficult to hear you over the TV. Cheers from The Netherlands!

I know. Might do a redo.

I have that exact same model in mint condition and a 10" table porthole. I recapped them and both work great, fun to watch both old and new TV shows on them.

Really great. Maybe use a mat on top of the cabinet to place your tools...

Hi, do you know where I can buy a knob for a 1951 zenith porthole? I am missing the upper leftside knob.

It's like a cross between a tv and an oscilloscope.

Looks like the filter capacitor might need replacement causing that "wobble" in the pic.

It was fully recapped and restored in 2012 by me. And this was the first time turning it back on in a year and 5 years before that. Needs some contact cleaner and Thinking a bad tube on the vertical problem cause of it getting worse as it plays.

HELLO BEAUTIFUL ZENITH BRAZIL

[@jerrycvek6098]

I like your old Zenith Black & Whit 1950 TV a lot, You do not see manny of these around at all. No other TV repair person has one of these on RUclips. You may have the only one running that is left in this world. If there is any other sets like this still out there, Yours is likely the best one working this good. I do not think Zenith mande to manny of this one model TV with a full round CRT.

this TV is at least worth 3k $

[@keeler1160]

The TV was real loud. I barely was able to hear you talk.

[@fwdstuck]

I know, might do a redo.

[@MrMenefrego1]

@@fwdstuck Please do, that would be so helpful.

[@ernestomercado4479]

Can't hear you...hello. Why don't you sell it?

Could you like, shut up and let him do whatever he wants with his TV.
