Those looked terrible even brand new. Rather watch the soft RCA"s !
The arm mounted sets were all 9" Zeniths with the last real Zenith
9" chassis. All the old Sony & Toshiba 5" were gone, very worn out.

A former TV repairman friend was telling me that, within the last year, he had a heart attack and had to be hospitalized. He said the TV in his room was an RCA CTC175 with a very tired CRT. I've seen some of the flat panel TV's in some of the rooms (I think they were Samsung sets) and they didn't look so great.
