With some kind of thingy attached to it. What the heck is that?
Was this some sort of industrial model?

That's the interdimensional modulator which transposes tachyon particles into the most tender morsels you've even sunken your teeth into.

Dontcha know anything?

I'm just wondering if that box is some kind of outboard (third party with mods?) video input device. Some sort of switching going on there and there is another connector on the other end.

Could it be part of those hotel pay by the minute set ups?

Remote control unit? Cable TV converter? Just guesses.

Phonevision unit, perhaps?

She belongs to me, now!! I have to admit, curiousity about the box, which MAY be a Zenith Phonevision unit(an early pay-tv descrambler, that was experiemented with by Zenith), got the best of me,and I went for it!!

KOOL! Zenith was indeed one of the pioneers of cable TV in general....and they continued on with cable boxes (are they still in this biz?)
