Up until the rise of transistor radio imports, you could say the transoceanic was the flagship of Zenith innovation. Their patents in television remote control, electromagnetic convergence, and their dodges of RCA's color patents kinda took over in the 60's...In the 70's the Chromacolor Black matrix CRT was a great innovation (it was as big a leap in color CRT tech as the contemporaneous trinitron)...They kinda started grasping at straws from there...Acquiring failing Heathkit mostly for their computer line but not growing in to a lead there and later dumping it, letting the FCC con-them into investing tons of money into a NTSC compatible HD format the FCC ultimately dropped compatibility requirements for....The last sound thing they did for the consumer electronics industry created the wireless data transmission format that is in ATSC DTV, but by then they were on their last legs.
