Hey, DaveWM, I see the appeal of these sets as well. Stashed someplace, I have a 1986 G.E. "space-maker" TV/Radio which mounts under a kitchen cabinet. Has AM/FM/VHF/UHF and can run on 12v.d.c. Also had a plastic box which could mount to the tv set with d- or c- batteries.
It was my parents' kitchen set that they bought new. Matsushita CRT with a long inline crt neck for a 5" screen, and yes a real radio complete with vari-cap tuning, It was made after the Japs took over g.e. but before all small TVs went to shit.
model 7650A.
So many of these sets were probably victims of their operating environments...kitchens are hot and smelly spots to place an analog receiver!
