    ඒ කාලේ සෝනි ටීවී නම් පට්ට. අඩුම අවුරුදු 25ක් 30ක්වත් පාවිච්චි කරලා තියෙනවා නේ හැම ගෙදරකම වගේ... :love2: :love2:

    Yeh, we had a Sony Trinitron TV which bought in 1985.
    It worked well till 2010 then tube was repaired for the first time.
    After that we continued to used that until 2018 and discarded due to a color IC problem.

    Very reliable when compared to today TV sets. Made like a tank.

    We also had this one Black & White Tv for almost 30 years. i can remember, if it had a good antenna it can catch some satellite channels also. i still can remember we used to watch CNN on this. not very clear but watchable. :love2: :love2:

    I think some TV set models were assembled in SL in past.

    There was a TV that was owned to our relative. A 'Daytron' B&W one, from '80s.
    On its rear there is a sticker 'MADE IN SRI LANKA'.

    Sony, Daytron, National all had 25-30 years of lifetime.

    මගේ ළඟත් 89 අවුරුද්දේ ගත් නැෂනල් ටීවී එකක් තියෙනවා, ඔරිජිනල් මදර්බෝඩ් සහ ටියුබ් එකම තවම හොඳින් වැඩ.
