I join in on the agreement on the Zenith Flatties.. I STILL wonder what Zenith did to make those CRT"S so good and bullet-proof. I have my own theories..but am not really as knowledgeable on CRT design as some. I suspect it was overly-heavy cathode coatings, maybe superior getterings and vacuum too
there were only two real "weak points" on the flatties and the vertical chassis that followed. The biggest one--the safety caps, second...triplers (and focus components.). I would expect that MANY flat-chassis sets and vertical sets went to the grave with one of those bad parts--but with near-PERFECT tubes.,flybacks, and most else...
