Walls are two shades of Color Television Is Touchy A color 'television set is a touchy as a bride-to-be whose engagement has been brtf- ken. The delicate instrument that brings quality viewing through improved broadcasting and reproduction needs special care when installed. After that, a well-trained serviceman is its (and your) closest friend.

When installed, the color television picture must be aligned properly. For sets two or three years old this take up to 2 hours. Improved equipment allows servicemen to align new. model sets in 20 minues. The average cost for this is $40, according to executives of a -maker of equipment for television- servicemen.

The firm urges consumers to buy from-a store that provides or recommends technicians equipped to handle all color television problems. Once installed a set should be serviced once a year in the home by a technician. Although automatic or manual degaussers are part of better quality color 'television sets to demagnetize or counteract the earth's magnetic field and out down on impurities that louse up a picture, it may be necessary for the to degauss- the set in a few months after it is installed. He also must be equipped to realign the picture so it will hold for at least another year. Servicemen point out that a set owner shouldn't play around with controls on the back of a FOR MOST WOMEN 'Jamiary'ls Critical Month color set or with the inside of a color set.

"The entertainment should be in the front of the set and not the back." Color television is a high voltage instrument If at all possible, a set should be repaired in the home to avoid double realignment, according to Amphenol-Borg. Avoid moving a color set un less it is a portable. Also -avoid physical shocks such as setting something heavy on top or bumping it with. the vacuum. Never set a radio on top of your color television because it will upset the demagnetization.

This probably will require another service trip to degauss, the. set. You. buy a color television for top reception in the home. Therefore, do not let store sales pitches concerning hand-wiring or printed, circuitry confuse you.

The difference is too slight to affect your decision. If in doubt, check with your service- man and have him explain any repair problems you might worry about. Number of tubes also should not be a major sales point. The picture you receive is uppermost. Also beware of "bargains" unless you know the seller and have some guarantee Less expensive and off branc sets usually do not have de- gaussers or adequate tuners.
