GE Color TV 13" with simple remote looking

[demy1942]

Hi Zeno,

It had to be the 13" models. I bought this after my 5" black and white Panasonic was stolen from me while I was working. It still gets me mad after almost 35 years.

You mentioned something about these sets having a problem called griplet? Not sure of what this is?

I know the last few years of this set I had to Bang the top of the set to get the picture to straighten out. It was a good set while it lasted but heavy as heck. Plus, you had to go right up through the channels to get to your channel. No numbers on the remote, very basic but it was my first remote controlled tv. So, lazy in those days!!!!!! Funny, how we used to get up and change the channel.
Thanks for helping

You had the griplet problem.
The PC boards were printed on both sides. To hook the top & bottom
etches together the crimped on a rivet & soldered it. With time the
connections go bad & you got to hit it. Other than that they were
very reliable sets.
