Mitsubishi and the fish oil caps! Once you smell the tell tale smell, get ready to buy a new tip for the soldering station! Surface mount microscopic resistors! The GE "swiss cheese" chassis! As bad as the RCA! Panasonic's "Prism" that blasted the neck of of it's CRT like Zenith with bad safety cap and on the same set, the inability to get the board out to repair vertical IC connections! Funai VCR that requires you to unsolder those wonderful wiring harness' to get the transport off the board! Transistors and IC's that have the part number removed at the time of manufacture! And don't forget the Sony TV with the double foiled mother board and daughter boards that were SOLDERED in! Removing the daughter boards always resulted in broken traces that took forever to repair!
