I have that same Samsung variant and it is the best of the small sets I own. Garage sale find and probably not many hours. Opened it once for drive settings and linearity fix. Color is very accurate.

showing up everywhere about this time under many aliases. The first few years they were toilets but slowly improved. This one wasnt bad to work with & ran as good as any low end set. They just look messy & cheap inside. Compared to the first Chinese sets back around early 90's they were a Cadillac. 73 Zeno:smoke: |
One of my first TVs was a 1982 Samsung 2-13 pushbutton 13" color set..with IR remote! It was attached to a Sharp 2Head VHS VCR with wired remote.
Sold both of those in 1997 at a yard sale for 40 bucks cash. Once I found a 12" b/w Samsung from 1984 that was ant infested. It worked. and It had a quirk that when you powered it down, the raster very slowly shrunk in size, evenly at all sides, until the picture just disappeared into a dot. |
Years ago, I sold a lady a '79 13" Samsung color TV and she's still using it.

Back to the GE Portacolor III vault here. My original Samsung version went PS south 3 years ago. Neighbor gave me the same set his teenage son was replacing. High mileage but working fine. CRT a bit tired but ok for the kitchen set on top of the fridge. I decided to replace it with a strong 2002 13" Sony today and popped it on the Beltron for fun before recycling. A Beltron cleaning brought it back like new and almost as sharp as the Sony replacement. Pic is a bit blue but the color is spot on vs. the Sony. Great, now I have to keep the little guy somewhere.
