I'm 41 and my first TV was a 12" mid '60s Zenith B&W that was given to me at age 15. The set was old but useable when I got it and I changed a few tubes and learned how to adjust it. I had it for six months and then the flyback finally went bad. I've been a Zenith fan ever since. I have been tinkering with electronics all my life and even tried to work as a TV repairman in the mid 1980's. I never could make any money in it as the "disposable mantality" was starting to take over. I now use my love for and knowledge of electronics to indulge this satisfying hobby.
