Some old color sets deal better than others, for sure. I can tell the bad ones because they're the ones I have to keep adjusting, never able to get things "just right". Portacolors are an example, as is the all-tube 68 Motorola I have. My roundies do alright, except for the CTC-5 which requires babysitting. When I was watching the 69 DuMont the other day I was surprised at how accurate it was-I never had the urge to touch the tint.
We had a GE console with VIR. I never noticed any difference whether it was on or off; kinda neat to have a green led glowing on the front of your tv, especially when you're a kid! I do recall that GE bragged about winning an Emmy for coming up with VIR. There was also VIR II, but I don't remember what was special about it.
