49-1280 TV Info?
#7

I don't see anything on the set that suggests it was made in Canada.

It looks like this one's going to be really easy to restore.
I've only replaced the B+ filters and the paper caps in the horizontal section and I already have a terrific picture.
Not bad for a chassis that was a filthy mess and a home to mice, the area right next to the tuner was really cruddy with mouse pee and dirt.
I removed the tuner, completely took it apart and washed it in an aqueous parts washer.

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photos which were attached to this post are no longer available.
