Now I have to decide whether to install the Rca hi-lite tube or the Sylvania color bright 85 tube.

[QUOTE=oldtvman;3100950]Thanks guys,

Did a little more digging. Ford purchased Philco in late 1961. They re-named it Philco-Ford in 1966. Ford sold Philco to GTE in 1974. GTE also owned the Sylvania brand at the time. So maybe the Sylvania tube? Just for yucks.
