I think the trouble with the 10" version is it has the same phosphor 'dot' size as the bigger screens, so it is really course on such a small screen. They are some tough sets. GE, of course, was (is) all about value-how cheap can we make this widget and still have it work okay? It took them awhile to make a really good color tv that way. I grew up around lots of GE sets and the flyback whine was really common (I never paid it any mind, just figuring that all sets must do it, until I started dragging home other makes) and the voltage flucuation issue sounds kinda familiar, too.
I have an elderly neighbor with a 19" GE from the 80s-push button tuning, remote I think. That set is in a back room and probably hasn't been on in years. Though I don't have the room, I should make an attempt at saving it, before it gets tossed.
