I think this set I have is a Superset. It uses a comb filter to filter the chroma subcarrier, thus avoiding most false color crawlies on referees' shirts. At the time, this set would have had a better picture than most other sets of its day. I had to resolder some connections on its tuner, other than that, it has worked well.

I had one of these during the mid eighties. It was a good set but I never really liked the tinted glass on the picture tube. I thought it affected the color too much. Also, there used to be some kind of glitch in the processor because occasionally it would switch off when I pressed one of the channel buttons. On the whole it was a good set and quite well made, especially by today's standards. Mine was branded Montgomery Ward.

that is a superset from the early 80s.these were really good sets with a black matrix inline tube.you never see one with a bad or even weak crt.tuner problems and vertical ic issues but never a crt.those early inline e08 chassiss were pretty reliable also.hot s and triplers (eeg523) and a few color ic problems but again no crt s.if only they could have made a 25vdmp22 to last like those inlines!
