The sets work, but the regulation is crap, the hv is way to high or fades when the set heats up. Some just annoying crap.

The only positive thing I can say about Zenith at the moment is the flybacks never seem to fail.
At one point today I had this 25mc36 up to 50kv and the stupid thing was arcing so loud it was hurting my ears, I didnt even know it was possible to get the hv that high.
GRRRRRRR
Hey Ma, you can see a picture of my bones on the wall. XRAY :-)
