I remember similar sets at the Tri-Cities Airport when I was perhaps 8 years old. This would have been around 1990. I remember being thrilled when my grandmother gave me quarters so I could watch TV while waiting for Cousin Julie's plane to land.

They still had rotary tuners, and I don't recall being able to receive UHF, though I may have been able to do so. It was b&w, which I was used to, and I don't recall watching anything I enjoyed. I likely watched local gospel programs, such as "The Campbell Gospel Hour," sponsored by Campbell Ford, a long-gone Ford dealership.

The fact that I could insert a coin and watch television pleased me at the time, despite the fact that I couldn't watch anything I liked.
