Yah, The Chromacolor tubes were most likely the best tubes ever made. So Zeno, a
question.... I have a 21" or so Magnavox, 2003 I think, and a 34" Panasonic HD
CRT set, 2007? and I have seen RCA's 15" that people have tossed out, Same
vintage and they all have a perfectly flat & very square picture tube, and they
make one of the sharpest pictures I have ever seen on a CRT. So I believe
the RCA set was marketed as a "Pure Flat" tube, And Samsung also had
a CRT set around the same time and maybe it was them that called the
tube "Pure Flat" but anyway these were among the last of the new
technology CRT sets I remember seeing.... You got some history
on these CRT's? I seem to recall Zenith Patenting a Pure Flat
CRT but don't remember seeing any Zenith sets with that same
look to the CRT face... Thanks.... And while yer at it spill all
the other Zenith knowledge you got squirreled away in that
brain of yours.... we're all ears... Was that ELF tube what
Zenith called "System 3" I think it may have been....

I have a 1972 23" Chromacolor floor model, it's sweet!
Awesome picture..... Love that set....
