Please view photographs for condition. Thank you for looking go ahead make offer on this unique piece. DEFINITIVELY part of American history. The Pilot TV-37 is an unusual vintage television with a tiny 3-inch picture tube that is barely watchable by todays standards, but the TV-37's compact size and unusual design make it a favorite for collectors. Pilot only made these sets for a few years and it was very popular with students going off to college. The TV is housed in a streamlined cabinet with a wooden base and an upper case made of pressboard. The set measures 14 inches wide, 13 inches deep, and 9.5 inches high, the size of a large table radio.

Most of the upper case is perforated for ventilation. The front controls are simple with only four knobs for power/volume, brightness, tuning, and contrast.

The tuner control includes a high/low switch, which lets you select two tuning ranges. The low range is channels 2-6 and the high range is channels 7-13. Unlike most TV tuners, the Pilot's is continuously variable.

Instead of clicking from one station to the next, it turns smoothly like a radio tuner. Its construction is similar to a radio tuner, using air variable capacitors, pulleys and strings.
