That's news to me, but those sets give a very good color, soft and life like picture!

Well, I missed out on the CT-100 and the 15GP4, as those were almost gone by the time I graduated to color and an older tech got them. However since I owned a CBS 205 that I had cobbled together from three junked chassis, I inherited all of those that came in to the shop.

I've only seen two TV sets that gave almost as good a picture as I saw on a studio monitor and they were the CBS 205 and Toshiba/Sears. The CBS was junked when the last of my two 19VP22's went to air.

Never in my life have I walked into a store and bought a TV immediately except for that once when I saw that Toshiba at Sears!

You know, with the CBS, you spent more time working on the thing than watching it, but with the Toshiba, they just kept running.
