...and it gets more detailed. The H-4/HE Chassis was in production in late 76 / early 77, making the tube Porta Color the true last Porta Color. Apparently, a lot of tube stock, tooling still in place, and multiple outlets (Western Auto, Packard Bell, Canada?) led GE to make a last production run with available parts. Most were left from a cancellation of a 1974 (production in 75) WT Grant contract to make Bradford-badged Porta Color sets.
So let's see....Packard Bell, WT Grant, Truetone and who else used the HD/H-4 chassis? HE chassis was GE-specific, as I am told.
