New find: 1986 Pulser (Canadian Tire) 14" Color TV
Found this 1986 Pulser (Canadian Tire brand) model 45-2019-0 14" Color TV this weekend.
Works nice, good shape, Made in Korea. Is it a Daewoo CRT ? Or Samsung ?

Daewoo built set.
The Daewoo sets I've seen had Daewoo branded CRT's in them. I still don't know if they made their own.
I have a few Daewoo sets, as well as a GE and a couple of Zenith branded sets, that were assembled in Mexico. Also, a couple of Zenith branded prison sets, that were Daewoo. They're color tinted clear plastic, instead of perfectly clear, like the RCA's and a few others. A lot of technicians, thought they were a low-end make and trouble-prone, but I find it hard to agree with them. Then again, I haven't repaired TV sets, on a regular basis, for well over 25 years. Another super-clean piece of history. |

Daewoo's were strange animals. Seems they built garbage
to sell under there own name & decent stuff for others. One of the last Zeniths on the floor was a 27" wega type HD set with an impressive jack pack. A year later one came in ( bad FBT) & I nearly crapped myself when I opened it. It was a Daewoo !! Funny thing is it was built as good as any & threw a damn nice picture. Never could understand why Zeniths didnt go to GS chassii by then. They were still selling the paper mache PCB Zeniths in most of the line. Must be some relationship between Daewoo & GS ? 73 Zeno |

That Bad Boi looks almost IDENTICAL to a KTV-K-Mart branded color TV from the Eighties/early Nineties.

"Set built by Daewoo, but the CRT in there is a UK-supplied Mullard, made at their Simonstone factory and sold under the Philips and Mazda brands too thanks to the licencing arrangements Mullard worked with". http://boomboxery.com/forum/index.ph...-4#entry270224

It is not easy to find them though. There's more collectors out there than you think for these things ! They keep low profile.. you know. I dont though. I always share my finds.
