1985 Quasar 11" color with the remote

I had been looking for a small TV to put on my desk. I would have gone for either a b/w or color, but if I got a color I wanted it to be one with a remote. And I like those little Zeniths but I never see them with a remote. I think its odd that Zenith made that set with so many other advanced features, and then made so few with the remote control.

When I was watching this last night it lost the vertical deflection entirely a few times. But twiddling the vert hold control always brought it back. I'm hoping a dirty control is all it is.

The last one I bought, has remote. I have to use a universal remote, as the channel up button doesn't work. The sound is a lot better than a lot of the small sets, with the side mounted speaker.

I think the reason for not many remotes is that the sets are
small & usually within reach. It may be very simple to add
if the micro is the same as the remote ones. May just need
a tiny IR receiver. You would have to compair things in
both manuals. Now that I think of it maybe the only 9"
with remote was the black AC/DC model. I just dont remember now. I do remember the later Chinese POS 9"
they sold was remote & used a different one than all other
Zeniths.
