I wouldn't say that old Blackstripes never die, but in my mother's kitchen there is
a similar unit purchased new in March, 1977 (our first color TV), that has litterally
never needed service! There are some borderline caps in the power supply, it
will sometimes just go out unexpectedly, but can give months of reliable service
at a time. I trust it will see the NTSC shutdown this coming August. What will
happen to this set afterwards, I don't know...
