It's a Magnavox from 2009 I found at at estate sale. I really don't like it, because I can only pick up one or two channels clearly, no matter which antenna I use.
Update - I swapped out the Magnavox converter box with the Zenith converter box in the other room. Now, the color does not fail, and I can get all the channels very clearly. If anybody remembers back last December, when I got DirecTV, a few of my TV's at that location did not take kindly to to the new source. A few of them had color problems very similar to this where the color would vanish completely, or they would start barberpoling. I think this TV's chroma circuit is just extremely sensitive to fluctuation from the video source.
