Motorola experiences I had with the TS-914, 918, 938 WID were an easy to fix set.
It was easy to measure, wiggle and adjust without a mirror on the WID sets.
Also seemed to avoid most costly or catastrophic failures. The Kinescopes (23EGP22,
25XP22)were a bit short of Zenith, but certainly outlasted GE, Philco and Mags.
The front ends just never seemed that great and required relatively strong signal for a passable AGC response. Nothing like the wireless products and emergency radios.
They seemed to copy Zenith and Admiral in many ways. But, I must admit, I could never get them to look sharp and with true-color. RCA and Zenith looked the best.
