Circa 1948, Motorola's most popular late 1940's TV. This one's been electronically restored  and  works as  good as it did  when new. The finish is original except for the control panel which I re-finished & applied new decals. There are a few blems an nicks in the finish but no loose veneer, deep gouges or serious damage. I created the  art work and  had them made since the originals where mostly  worn  off. I offer these for sale on the VT-71 service manual page.

This  was  an  inexpensive TV for  it's time  made for  the budget minded. The VT-71 is not  one of the  best circuit  designs of the time but does well with a good signal. Most TV's of this era had 20 or more tubes (some as many as 30), while this one only had 15. Features  8 channels,  several must  be  pre-set for for you local stations. Channel positions: 2 or 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, 10 or 11 & 12 or 13. Read my write-up about operating your vintage TV.
