I got the cataract fixed on my Maggie roundy. Turns out mine has a Sylvania CRT with a cataract that was half way between RCA and Zenith in terms of look and material consistency.

I've always been a fan of WID sets. When I was a kid in the early 90s we had one of the last hybrid WID sets. Picture quality was as good as a Zenith Chromacolor and it was a reasonably long lived set.

I believe they were built in Taiwan. AOC corp survived Rockwell closing down American Admiral. It's possible Admiral initially was more involved in engineering, but I'd imagine that tapered off a ways before Admiral ended otherwise AOC would have had a hard time building up an engineering staff to continue producing new models when American Admiral shut down.
