First let me start off by saying that it is not working. Sad

It doesn't do anything when I power it up. No lights, no sound, nothing.

I've checked all the fuses, and they seem to be good. Caps don't appear to be bulged, no obvious signs of failure.

This would make a cool project for anyone wanting a challenging repair and a neat little CRT TV set.

It can be yours for the cost of shipping. (This would fit in a USPS large flat rate easily)

What connector does it have for connecting to a PC? S-Video, CGA, EGA, etc? If it requires a cable, what cable is needed? I can't find much info online. Might be fun to use when testing really old hardware.

What would be the cheapest shipping to the UK, and given the probable weight, would you be willing to see if Parcel Monkey is cheaper than USPS? As long as the tube itself isn't the problem, I might take the risk if shipping is cheap enough Smile

It's not very heavy. Only a bit over 6lb.

Inputs appear to be RF? I don't think they are composite.

I'll leave it in that case. It would rarely get used if it doesn't use standard connectors (that would also assume it can be fixed, which is not guaranteed). Thanks

On the side there, I see a mini display that shows which channel is on there. Does it show the antenna on there and how would I or someone go about connecting any composite device to it?

That's a very cute color portable TV set.

I don't know if it supports composite. I do have an external antenna cable with it (not pictured).

The TV tuner box is actually detachable, but does also have an integrated antenna.

Maybe, but, I think they made a composite modulator that would connect to input 1 or input 2 for that, however, I could be incorrect.
