If you find the sharpness, and focus knobs you will get an even better picture
if you tweek the focus, and set the sharpness to something less than overkill....

I have found on lots of 80's - 2000 crt sets, even the ones with the hated black
plastic cabinets, if you open them up, and find and adjust the focus, and possibly
even touch up the convergence if the white glue has dried and cracked, the
set will deliver an unbelievably sharp (pun intended) picture....

I don't think it was a BOL set, Sharp did not have tiers to their line through that
time period. The features of each size tv was pretty standard through the line.
The difference was in the cabinets. Many of those years also came with wood
cabinets of various qualities. Along with the cabinet upgrade, was often aux.
video and audio inputs to make them compatible with their Optinica (sp) High
end audio line. They were all STK IC chip audio outputs, so Hi end as far as
those chips went.... But they did sound good.... Rocked the TV Shop good ! !

I think yer lucky to have gotten the remote...... Very good find....
