Microprocessors in TV sets

[AVeturri]

Interesting conversation here. It boggles my mind to think of the engineering which went into the early electronic tuners..pretty intricate stuff indeed..
Ferrite memory is something I'll have to look up.
And yes the G-E I owned was always breaking down due to heat-related stress cracks in the solder points.
Still to this day It has been difficult to find a TV with early O.S.D. .. from say, the early 80s or older.
