Probably a Linytron. I think that's Sharp's version of the Sony Trinitron. I thought you didn't want any more 80's sets?

Looks like a FF13663 Linytron Plus. Nice find. Those early Sharps don't surface often; I'd certainly save one for $3. Example in the pics (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1983-SHARP-Color-Portable-Television-13-034-TV-Linytron-Plus-Model-FF13663-/282390675695) (not mine) recently went for $60 + S/H.

Centralradio, are any of your 19" Linytrons a 19Cxx or C19xx chassis, c. 1978-81? I've been hunting for one of those for ages.
