Before hollering about how bad modern stuff is, let me note that the computer I am using to type this on is 9 years old, and my Sanyo CRT TV is also 9 years old(never had the back off). The computer is on several hours per day! Modern electronics is not the poor quality many think.

On the other hand I have GE TVs from the early 1960s that have all the tubes on PC boards-I got several from an old TV shop, but only 2 were restoreable due to charcoaled PC boards. Also, Zenith(and other manufacturers) used photo finish on some of their radios(over cheap wood) in the 1930s. Poor quality has always been with us.
