Don't know why not. Our first color TV was a Heathkit. Wife and older kids stuffed boards, I qc'd and soldered. Worked first time around:-)))))))))))))))))
Cost me as much as one off the floor, but I never had to pay any service calls.

Me too, except I was the "Kid". My dad and I built one when I was 12 and I stuffed most of the boards. Great experience, learned alot. TV worked great for many years. Instructions were so good, anyone could have built one. Maybe the ARF Mfr's should study an old heathkit instruction book!
