You know, those el-cheapo 5" B&W TV sets. They're everywhere and under a million different brand names. They were widely available new until the DTV switch over, and even though they (AFAIK, one Chinese company might still manufacture them) stopped making them, they are still widely available new in box. The brands I remember the most are Coby and Spectra. The Coby ones were at Wal-Mart for $14.99. There were some Sylvania ones, Suntone, jWIN, and many more. In 2009, I was 5. We were at my dad's friend's house in Plano. He collected TVs, and still does and wants us to come over! Before we left, he gave me a CB radio (I still have it!) and said I could pick any vintage TV from the garage. I've always loved miniature things, and I spotted the little white thing on the shelf. "What's with that little video box right there?" He said "Oh, that's actually a tiny TV!" He let me take it home (sweet! quick anecdote: the next day, my dad went back over without me and I told him to ask for the 13 inch GE. when he came back, I had it, LOL) and I loved it. I only had the car adapter, so I asked my parents to take me for a drive as frequently as possible! The brand on it was COTA. Not Coby, but COTA. My dad still to this day says "COBY, not COTA!" (but I googled it, there was definitely a TV under the COTA name ) So I wonder, who manufactured those? The CRT in my Coby CX-TV1 is a FUHONG. Here's a page about these TVs: https://www.petervis.com/gallery/Toy..._FM_Radio.html

EDIT: That page actually mentions the Cota!
