I bought a CX-500 "back in the Day" new, & it served WELL for nearly 25 yrs, til, stupidly, I sold it. It was my "Car Wash" TV...I'd take it outside & play the radio/tape while washing whatever steed I had during those days. We also took it "Up on the Hill", a place outside of town where they had all the ginormous antennas for the cable TV system, & would watch "Hill Street Blues"...Hey, somethin' to do in a small Southern town....AMAZING how many TV stations the l'il guy would pick up there...Quite a few that we DIDN'T get on cable. I got a "knockoff" CX-500 back since- 4.5 color set, AM-FM, cassette, & it brings back happy memories...Too bad we CAN'T "Go up on the Hill" anymore.
