when my dad purchased our philco roundie it was 12/1966.the philco ford line had just been delivered the day before.spanky mcfarlane was in the store to promote.i have to say,the picture was outstanding.it was the brightest and sharpest in the store.of course,sun didnt sell a top of the line set such as zenith and rca.they did stock a few lower level,base models but their flagship was sylvania a few years later.our set also had tuner issues at the end of our ownership causing my dad to purchase a d-16 slide control sylvania.that set is still in operation at my brothers house.tuner was rebuilt by united tuner in the late 80s and a tripler was replaced.crt is still bright and sharp.now that was a set!
