A: When Zenith color TV sets went to the hybrid chassis. And then went to ChromaColor then ChromaColor II. And the black matrix, long lived, superb CRT that made superb pictures.
B: When Sony introduced the Trinitron and it was THE set to own in 17" and smaller into 1980.
C: When Silicon transistors became common and replaced tubes. And the Japanese used them in high numbers, and technology matured.
D: When RCA went to the XL-100 chassis. Their first classic transistor, long life set. XL stood for Xtended Life.
