In the olden days a mop & pop shop would usually sell a
high demand set like Zenith or RCA and also a lower demand
value line. We were Zenith & Admiral. Philco became a value
line in the early 60's. Market share was very low & the
quality not so hot. The hybrid was a decent set. When you
get to solid state sets it starts getting expensive to keep up
with technology on a small scale. Hence you get the buy outs
& shut downs of brands. Sylvania could use its own chassii
in Philco & keep the old dealer network. Results are getting a
few more % market share & save a ton on engineering etc.
