Hi Guys,
I put the TV on the shelf for about a year. When I went to use it the picture flashed and the audio made a hell of a noise. Now, sadly it's dead Jim (Ron).

Anyone wanna repair this? It's a classic, looks like a 12" black and white but is color. It's old school cool. Very Happy

Forgot to mention it's OEM'd from Sharp of Japan

LOL......

The sad part is I may actually have some parts for that......

I just grabbed a box out of storage that has a bunch of semiconductors from that and 80's era. I got a couple of old Marantz receivers I was going to see if I could get running again.

I'll post pictures next week. It's at my office. I use it when I do repairs, I just haden't fired it up for a while. I used it continuously for 2 years with an analog TV converter. As fast as you can hit the button on the remote you can change the channel. I miss that.

Mac,
I figured.....lol
