This is actually a follow-up from an earlier post about the old TV's in my collection. I was finally able to repair both of these Philco sets. Here are a couple of videos of them in action. The first set is the rare 1958 Philco Predicta. I was able to locate a picture tube in Washington State. What an ordeal getting that thing shipped via Greyhound bus! As far as I know I have one of the last picture tubes available for this set.
This next video is a clip playing on a 1948 Philco round tube set. Both play beautifully. You may notice the copy protection bars on the episode of the Honeymooners they fade in and out. The older B&W sets were not able to filter out these new schemes. I found a copy protection filter to clear that up. So what do you think?
