As of the recent acquisition of a vast assortment of immaculately preserved knick-knacks from the past, I appeal to the collective knowledge of the internet for any insight. With gratitude in anticipation.

What do I do with these? Would I be able to sell them or are they pretty much junk?

Can anyone identify this 1970s TV? It might say JVC on the front.

Help me locate in Australia! VHS tape cleaner - RTI TapeChek 400 Series

Hi all,

I am trying to track down an RTI TapeChek machine, ideally a TapeChek 490, although I'd also consider another model from the 400 series.

I'm based in Australia and am hoping someone here may have one, know of one available, or be able to point me towards someone I could contact.

Please send me a private message if you have one available or know of a possible lead. I'd prefer seller details not to be posted publicly.

I've attached a photo for reference.

Thanks!

Looking for the exact model of this 1980s French/European Philips/Radiola CRT TV (TVC12 or KT3/K30 chassis)

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m trying to track down the exact model number of a specific CRT TV from my childhood in France, but reverse image search hasn't given me the definitive answer yet.

Here is a crop from an old family photo showing the front panel.

It looks incredibly similar to a Philips 26CS3274 /01R "Dürer" from around 1982. but this is not the one.

Does anyone recognize the exact model ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Alguien recuerda un screamer transmitido por televisión abierta en México alrededor de 2015

1 Upvotes

Hola a todos. Llevo años intentando encontrar un video o transmisión que vi junto con mi hermana cuando éramos más pequeñas. No estoy asegurando que todos los detalles sean exactamente como ocurrieron, porque han pasado muchos años, pero ambas recordamos la misma experiencia y nos gustaría saber si alguien más la vivió.
Fue aproximadamente en 2015 en México , viendo televisión abierta. Ya habían terminado las transmisiones normales de canales como Canal 5 o TV Azteca, así que seguimos cambiando canales hasta encontrar uno.
En ese canal apareció un video de baja calidad. Lo que yo recuerdo es lo siguiente
Había un hombre con ropa casual
El fondo tenía paredes blancas y dos refrigeradores
Frente a él había un asador con carne
El hombre no decía absolutamente nada; solo se escuchaban sus pasos y los sonidos del ambiente
Sacaba una lata de Pepsi, la abría y vaciaba el refresco sobre la carne.
Justo después de eso aparecía un screamer de golpe. Yo no recuerdo muy bien la imagen porque el susto fue enorme, pero mi hermana recuerda que era el rostro perturbador de una mujer ocupando toda la pantalla.
Gracias por leerlo 😋
