I have owned roughly 3 or 4 black and white XAM TVs from the seventies.
One, a '71 all tube 12" b/w, was made in Japan by Toshiba. The next, which I still have, is a 13" metal cabinet b/w tube transistor hybrid made in Japan by some unknown manufacturer..1975.
Their color TVs were not half bad...all made by Toshiba, with Blacktripe inline gun tubes. The 1976 13" metal cabinet set, has instant on which is defeatable. On that set, there is a plug-in socket which looks just like a tube socket, in the HV section. It of course is a plug-in rectifier pack. The chassis before it probably had tube rectification.
