Re: Adding Remote Control To A TV
How is the TV controlled now? Does it have a row of pushbuttons, or an old-style pair of rotary switches?
I ask because I think it would be very cool to have a system that operates the original controls internally, like a player piano. It would probably be easier to do with a rotary switch TV, since you could just use servos (albeit very powerful servos) to control them.
About CRTs…
One way to make this project less dangerous would be to properly discharge the CRT before messing around. However, doing this would be more dangerous if not done correctly, so definitely find someone who knows what they're doing if you do decide to attempt it.
