That would make sense. Syl already built CRT's for itself & Sears / Sanyo.
Add to that Philco, Maggy & eventually Phillips & thats a lot of jugs.
They were also quite active in the rebuilt market.
On the chassis end last true Philco I remember was a little 9" B&W
football shaped TV, not a bad set. The colors were RCA SCR sweep
clones & real dogs. The first Sylvania/ Philco was the E08 IIRC.
Maggy became the builder of all in the early 80's. Probably the E32 was the last Sylvania. The NAP C-3 was the first I remember in all three. A real
over engineered POS chassis. Before that they had the C-1, the best Maggy ever. It only went in Maggys.
