Tube, hybrid, duramodule hybrid, duramodule(aka safety cap eater), System III, and Digital...evolution of Zenith chassis.

Zeno sold them, so Chromacolor probably meant something to him....

My dad had his nicknames for brands, none of which are unique, I'm sure...

"R-Sorry," "Maggotbox," "AD-misery," "9-dash set," "9-1-Shi**y," "Syl-Bane-ya," and "GH8-eater." Somehow I just knew what he was referring to.
