In 1979, I brought over from across the pond a 525 line Sharp TV/Radio/cassette Tri mate model 3T-59. The ceramic filter was changed and for quite a few years it was used in the kitchen parked on top a fridge freezer. Watching the 4" screen seemed nothing unusual even though the main TV was a tad bigger. It had a removable tinted filter just in case the sun was too strong and a very large loudspeaker in case hearing was a problem.

Happy Days
