[Bill Topazio]

Not to mention a few interesting ion burns!
And even then, they were as much furniture as TV

Sometimes I think the Admiral black and white set I watched while
growing up in the 50s and 60s was superior to many of today's receivers.

I had channel fine-tuning, a satisfactory clunk when changing channels,
no color balance problems, a nice glow from the built-in halation, and
no digital artifacts.  Plus I could DX distant stations by rotating the
aerial
up in the attic, or when local stations went off the air, I could
sometimes
see interesting snowy pictures of the stations 100 miles away in
Philadelphia,
given the proper tropospheric conditions.
