I missed the fun too but I remember the tv man's regular visits to my dad's CTC25 and yes I remember it getting it's flyback getting replaced at least once. My mom had the troublesome solid state Sears/ warwick console that needed the yearly visit by the Sears repairman. It had a problem that was never cured where the sound would go at the best part of the show and you had to hit it on the side to get it back.

My grandmother had a solid state GT Matic Sylvania and it never broke down until lightning got it in 1984. And my uncle's hybrid 1869 Zenith combo was equally trouble free.My grandmother on my dad's side used b/w tvs until her death and hardly ever had tv troubles.
