1977 Zenith Chromacolor II 25HC45

[zeno]

Interesting thing is D - E ( & maybe C ) line SS flat chassii and
E & maybe F line CC2 AND 12, 16" Zenith Taiwan B&W hybrids were
instant on. IMHO it shows instant on is not a bad thing when used
on a SS set. It should NEVER be used on an all tube PCB built set,
especially with compactrons ! I would always defeat it on those
sets. Its as easy as snipping one end of a diode in most sets. We used to
do it for a few bucks when a set came in if the customer wanted.
Turned out to be an obscene profit center !
