They were manufactured right here in Greenville, Tn. and I fixed countless numbers of them. They had a terrific picture when they worked and many were sold to motels.
And, to hospitals. At one time, our local hospital had a bunch of them in patient rooms. They had digital cable ready tuners with a red LED channel readout and a 3-wire power cord.
