Still a mystery to me

dad bought a philco ford roundie in 1964.spanky mcfarland was in the store promoting then.the picture was actually the best on the floor.dad took the display model,taqlked them down on price and paid cash.when it was delivered,we watched it until 2 am.next day,no high voltage.6kd6 went and service tech came out monday to replace.set lasted 10 years,no problems other than crt got jolted annually for the last 5.my dad marked the controls so we couldnt fiddle with it.other the sun tv tech who came out,only me and dad serviced the set.it was sold to a neighbor.repalced by a d16 slide control.that set is still in operation at my brothers.its been repaired twice in its long life.both were really good performers and had long lives.of course my das had an airline console radios from 1939 that is still working flawlessly to this day.he had good luck with the things he purchased
