13" Samsung color TV from August, 1980

Here's a TV that I sold someone, probably 20 years ago; and, they gave it back to me today. It's a 13" Samsung color TV from 1980 and is the oldest Samsung set that I've seen. I'll have to pull the back and get a look at the chassis and I don't remember the details from 20 years ago; but, I seem to remember it being better made than the later models that are a few years newer. I remember the flyback transformers liking to go up in smoke in the newer ones; but, this one must have been a good one. The last time I saw it on, it still had a bright CRT; but, I could tell that it needed some capacitors.
