MORE REPAIRS

Sanyo/Fisher were the most-reliable, while Daewoo/Audiovox/Emerson/Fisher/GE/RCA/Sanyo were the least-reliable. Would all of you (as techs) find this (his rankings) more preferable and accurate?

This is a fairly good listing.

Sony would be above Funai on my list.

Hmm. Sanyo at both ends of the list. Interesting...
