Notes

The tuner uses a green vertical line on the screen to indicate what channel it is on by how it is lined up with the label on the bezel. As with some other 9" and below sets, there is a bit of a screen door effect from each pixel triad being more visibly distinct. The jungle chip has a chrominance input which could be used for S-Video.

The black horizontal bars in the pictures were due to the AC adapter, and they went away when using a different power source. Old AC adapters can drift significantly over time and cause noise and bars on-screen, so if you are experiencing this issue try other 12V AC adapters that are center positive and at least 500ma, or a 12V lighter adapter.

Repair Notes

The one pictured had a flyback issue where the picture would start out very blurry when first turned on but gradually get fully clear after ten minutes. A youtuber also had a flyback issue with this model which would cause it to intermittently not display a raster.
