I was at a friends mothers house helping her clean and she said she had some electronics for me. She showed me an awesome TV but also had a pioneer thingy. I know I know,
Wondering if it is anything good like a Fisher or should be donated. She needs the cash so I want to check before bye bye...

Thanks

Don't know anything about the receiver, but what was the 'awesome tv'?

Let's see...(looking it up)...made from 1980 to 1982...20 watts per channel...near the bottom of the line when it was in production but has the "Fluroscan" display (power meter, tuning meter and stereo indicator) above the dial which some folks might like.

A look at completed sales on eBay reveals that this receiver has sold mostly in the $25 to $50 range, with one going as low as $6.50 and one as high as $100.

Pioneers seem to be well made, well respected receivers overall...from what I have read.

Heck, put it on eBay, you might get lucky. Or not. I never seem to do any good selling on eBay. Maybe you'll do better.

Did I try it? no
It was on a shelf not near an outlet and I didn't have any interest in it so didn't think of it.

I didnt even think to look it up on the google!
silly me.
Guess it goes in the garage sale pile for her.

As for the TV it is an RCA Victor model 8TS30
In working order but unrestored. She plugged it in, not me. I scolded her for it too. lol
