The company I was working for back then (80-81?) used some with the surveillance equipment we were designing. A pretty cool little TV.
Well I heard from the guy again and he had this quote from someone who had contacted him:

"We actually had one of these in the early eighties. It also had a little slide-on magnifying plastic "hood" if you found the screen too small. It was pretty good for the time!"

Looks like a match, although I guess it is still a question whether it was actually a classic-type aperture-grill Trinitron.

Thanks for your responses.
