Default Re: Hitachi CNP195.

The problem with the 190's selectors was that they weren't Japanese! Otherwise they were great sets, with some odd colour faults, frame cramping and convergence problems (yes, a capacitor) all you had to worry about. And that after fifteen years of reliable running.
I lost count of the number of customers in the late Eighties with a more modern Hitachi requiring repair who told me their parents still had a 190 still going strong with no service needed.
