There was also a BC chassis, used in 13" and 17" sets of the '83-'84 time period. This chassis was also made by Panasonic. It had a decent picture; but, flyback transformers loved to go up in smoke in them.

Not that long ago I had one of those infamous Panasonic consoles from 1984. A long time ago we had a 19" Panasonic with a red LED channel readout and six large rectangular buttons underneath, arranged in two columns.
