I never kept it a secret, that I was never thrilled with Magnavox TV's.
Too many PITA call-backs.

There were several Maggie models that gave me fits. Several of the tube models come to mind, and the first all solid state console with the board connectors that would literally BURN.

I got alot of repair business out of Magnavox sets after the factory warranty ended. Same with RCA, and a very few Zenith sets.

I needed the Magnavox name so I could buy parts from them, as they didn't like doing business with just anybody.

I'd consider a rubber room if the time ever comes. At least if I hit the floor, I wouldn't be hurt, much.
