A reasonable person would have thrown this out - Restoring the Commodore 1702 for some retro gaming

Video Description

The Commodore 1702 was released in the early 80s as a companion to Commodore's successful VIC-20 and C64. It's a wonderfully versatile little monitor with composite & early s-video (split chroma/luma) inputs and supported both NTSC and PAL video formats, making it a good choice for a smaller retro gaming CRT. This one came from the widow of a retired teacher. After spending its early years in a classroom, it suffered a few decades in an unconditioned shed, causing some severe corrosion. Let's see if we can make it good again! If you enjoyed this video, please subscribe and consider becoming a direct iiiDIY Supporter here! http://patreon.com/iiiDIY Thank you!
