The sears service guy was there every couple of months. they were glad to finally get rid of it. Of course they went to Sears to buy the new one.

That console model was probably a Warwick built set. Toshiba only built portable and table models at that time. After 1975, Sanyo bought out Warwick and even the consoles had Sanyo chassis. Those smaller sets had low voltage focus on the CRT's and as they aged, they weren't very clear.
