My oldest daily watcher is a 1961 Zenith 29JC20 roundy color....When I get my 1955 CTC-4 going right it'll probably get bumped to daily status too.

My bedside TV is a 27" Sony Trinitron with integral digital tuner. It is connected to two attic antennas, one aimed at Toledo and Bowling Green directly into the tuner and the other aimed at Detroit with a pre-amp into a converter box. It is used every morning and often at night.
A 13" "Sansui" in the kitchen is also connected to the Detroit antenna. It is used a little less than the bedroom set.

Still watching the 'ol Samsung!
And I still gotta give huge thanks to radiotvphononut, for the advice about the flybacks being a problem on this set. Saved me grief cause sure enough it failed. Bought the recommended one, and yep, still working today.

My daily driver here at my college dorm is a 1984 19" Sylvania Superset with E32 chassis. Bright, beautiful picture with all original components. I rescued it from the local e-waste recycling shed shortly after moving in. My building has analog coaxial cable from the wall so just screw it in and I get every channel, no digital set-top box required. I have a Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis sitting on top, both hooked up, with SD flash cartridges so I can load up whatever game I want. It's everything I need.

If and when I actually watch tv, you can bet it's on a CRT. I'm rockin' a late model Sony Trinitron, it's no classic, but it has a great picture, and sound. But all my computing, and gaming, is done on a crt monitor. LCD monitors just don't do it for me.

I currently have 5 tv with CRT running everyday since longtime. ( 2 old Toshiba, a Panasonic, and 3 B&W tvs . on 5 inch , a 10 inch and a 19 inch . All my tvs work ) I have no flat panel (screen ) except for my computer . I don't like the new TVs anyway . I have no modern phones and all my phones have a spining dial except some contempra wit push-button .. .. all my 5 radios are old and vintage and work great. In short, I do not have anything modern in my apartment except to have the cable for television by a provider because here in Quebec, we can no longer pick up the local channels on an outdoor antenna for a few years. All this for the benefit of the damned cell phones I imagine !

I watch my Motorola 19k14wa B&W console nearly daily, a Maggotbox 13" digital tuning CRT (from '07?) in the bathroom, a Trinitron broadcast monitor for video dubbing/Commodore 64, A LaCie/Mitsubishi 21" computer monitor, and a JVC D-ILA projector and big roll up screen for High Def.
Hopefully LCD will be obsolete soon, it's had too many flaws from the get go, and is just barely getting "good" If I had the room I'd set a dual Electrohome Marquee 9xxx stack for pure 1080p 60hz CRT goodness! I had an Electrohome ECP but it was a piece of crap that went up in flames, too bad because it had a great picture, very crispy with Laser Disc and Blu-ray.

The set was like new when I picked it up at the GW about six years ago. That's when they were getting $6.99 for a TV. Picture Quality is still great! It's used about three hours in the morning and three to four hours in the evening.
