If it weren't for those CTC-175-187 sets and the later M134C sets, Dad would have folded right up. They paid a lot of bills.

Coming in a close second were the cheaper Asian sets with either bad flys, bad vertical chips, or bad caps.

Sonys with regulator problems (mX0841/2sc4834's) also made us some money...
