Circa 1996 Daewoo 19" color CRT "BPC". 1987 Sharp 25" color table model faux woodgrain plastic (mechanical tuning). 1996 Zenith 13" color CRT "BPC" (remote, recent $6 acquisition). 2000 Action 5" B&W battery portable with radio (used in tandem with Zinwell DTV converter box and battery pack) "De-facto TV" (Gateway 21" color CRT monitor + RCA HD tuner + Sony boom box). Not "daily watchers" Circa 1958 Emerson 1224 24" B&W consolette, blond (works - not perfectly). (My favorite, I bought it used about 30 years ago and have made many repairs and tweaks). 1956 Motorola 21T34BA 21" B&W, blond table model (does not work - AGC problem) Circa 1958 Zenith 17B20 21" B&W, faux mahogany table model (works) Circa 1973 Zenith 14B38 19" B&W faux wood plastic portable (works, not perfectly) Circa 1980 Sanyo 12" B&W, coffee plastic (works, missing volume knob) Circa 1988 Zenith 12" B&W, faux wood plastic (banished to attic since 1996 color acquired) Two 5" B&W battery portables (recently purchased for $1) Sears 5" color AC/DC (works in AC, unknown model, boilerplate missing, only have AC cord and do not know how to connect for DC) Leaving just enough room (and only enough room) for: a color roundie.
