This region of northeastern Ohio, 30 miles from Cleveland and 40-some miles from the TV transmitters in the western Cleveland suburb of Parma, is (or was) solid Zenith territory until DTV came along, although I don't know how many, if any, Zenith flat screen sets were sold here (before Zenith left Chicago and the TV/electronics business for good, being taken over by Goldstar in the late 1980s or early '90s). My next-door neighbors in the '60s had a Muntz 21" console TV on a conical rooftop antenna; our own set (we had several, among them Crosley and RCA) was hooked up to an antenna in the attic. There were only three channels in Cleveland at the time, on channels 3, 5 and eight, affiliated with the three major US TV networks; the first UHF station, an NET (now PBS) affiliate, was on channel 25.
