I do not think this is a television but a monitor. It would be cool if it were a television. EricH would have a hard time passing this one up if it were a television. He is smart to collect a bunch of portable sets. :D He also has some back busters like the rest of us.
Sorry, I forgot to add the pics.

That is very cool! Shipping would be killer though and it would probably get broken.

Thats why I wont buy sets on ebay unless I can pick them up, it costs an arm and a leg and they almost ALWAYS get broken.

that is a cool lookin monitor. Would they use 75 ohm with a BNC connector, or a standard RCA jack?

Video would probably be a UHF connector like the antenna on a CB (SO-239?)

It's a "poratable", doncha y'all know ANYTHING ?!? Sometimes I think most of y'all are dumber than a bunch of Coal Buckets...or Sacks of Rocks... Wonder where in Lower Middle Tennessee the guy is? Might make for an interesting outing to pick it up..OTOH, 3 buck a gallon gas, maybe not...

cmon Sandy, you know you need more stuff! you just need one of those tin can roller skate kinda cars that get 40 - 50mpg. I'm sure some crazy soccer mom in her 20s would just love a big SUV :D

Actually, I WOULD like a diesel VW New Beetle...My sister has one, 50-55 MPG, little guy ain't a Corvette, but it ain't a slug like the "wiesels" of 25 yrs ago, neither...
