For about 6 months, a few years ago, when I first started fixing TVs, the only working set I had was a 59 Magnavox b/w console. For a while I mostly used a 72 Zenith 21" color hybrid for about a year, then switched to a 67 Zenith 25" color console (which I am avoiding now until I change the filter caps in the power supply). For some time I favored a 70 Zenith b/w.
Lately I have so many sets that I tend to rotate which sets I use regularly. Some sets even after they are repaired don't make it into the rotation, smaller portables, sets with weak CRTs, etc... Lately I have watched alot of my 61 Zenith 23" b/w, my other 59 Magnavox b/w console, and 68 Zenith 21" color. For the past few days I have been watching alot of VHS, which I almost exclusively watch now on my 83 Zenith, so I don't get that 'wavy' picture at the top of the screen.
I plan to fix up that 63 Philco color to the point where I can use it as a daily watcher. I watched some DVDs on it for a few hours this afternoon, and it dosen't really have any visible problems, just some dirty controls.
