Sweet 1974 Sylvania Color set

[TUD1]

Pulled this TV back out today, since I thought it would look cool on the cart I got yesterday. This set, having an inline gun, has razor sharp focus and outstanding colors. I put it up back in 2015 because it has a slight problem with the color demodulator IC. On faces, the color will sort of "roll" from pinkinsh to yellowish. I haven't noticed the problem anywhere other than on faces. Found a newspaper ad from 1974 with this model on it. I didn't really believe that it was a 74 with that inline tube, but I'm pretty sure it is now.

I think it's just an inherent trait of Sylvanias of that era. My '79 delta Superset must have had the best picture of any of my sets until the tripler blew. That was replaced, but then a solder pad fell off the focus control and I'm still trying to track one down, sigh.
