Back when you needed real engineering skills to make a TV, tubes, deflection yokes, high voltage all took a specialized skills.TV's have become a commodity item. Anyone remember when Sony ruled the day. Once upon a time, there was Curtis-Mathis. A few years ago, LG. Today? I'm after Screen size, resolution, and price. The most of the first two, for the least of the last.
My wife worked for Sony for 15 years, Sand came in one door TV went out the other door.
