I don't believe I've posted a pix of this set. I haven't had it on in quite awhile. Picture is as fantastic as ever, (although my camera doesn't capture screen shots well) I'll have to clean the tuner tho, as it's a tad glitchy. It's my 1975 23" Chromacolor 2. I picked it up at a junk-shop in downtown Omaha years ago. It used to be my daily watcher, but it started going thru modules left and right. It's a good thing I have a ton of NOS parts!
My camera doesn't capture screen shots well, but I saw METV has "Emergency" on! (used to be one of my favorite shows when I was a kid), so I figured it could get a workout today.........

Can you turn off the flash on your camera?

Is that an original hang tag? Wow!

those sets are awesome.i have a 25vdmp22 crt in my set from 1976.very fine picture.mine doesnt have intermittent audio issues but still a great set.the flat chassis was the best set ever produced by any maker and the vertical chassis a close second.zenith ruled until 1980 when they began a downhill slide
