You're welcome, it should work assuming your Pocket Vision is still functional. Thanks for watching.

Old technology is fun isn't it? Thanks for watching. 😃

​​​@@WaybackRewindthank you for making this video. KZfaq videos like yours influence me to buy a compact portable battery powered TV for use in an emergency when the electricity power goes out off during the winter months where I live. I can plug in my high quality digital house TV antenna for good signal reception 📺 There is no electricity needed for a TV antenna.

@@unitedstatesirie7431 exactly. So many don't realize free tv even exists or that these portable TVs can still be made to work. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind I do miss the amazing long range of the old VHF analog TV signal. I live in Washington State near the city of Seattle and I was able to receive clear TV signals from the country of Canada 📺

I grew up in upstate NY and watching Canadian TV was a regular thing.

It will work in the apocalypse perfectly. I'm sure streaming television will survive that just fine.😅

Will a Blue Ray DVD player with screencasting have wifi internet that will connect to a smart TV? I'm seriously having troubles with computer electronics. I don't understand most all of it. Old hunting dog is past learning new tricks but we still enjoy the hunt! Thank you for the videos, it's sinking in slowly for me, very slowly 😅

@@BillyWilliams-zp9uj Yes, As a matter of fact in my earlier video I used a streaming Blu-ray player to make TVs into smart TVs so that definitely will work. Thanks for watching. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i5hzobyFu8m6YoU.html

My first modem was 300 baud. I dialed into the mainframe it was plenty fast enough because it was all text with zero graphics. My first computer class used punch cards. Oh we had it rough. Thanks for watching.

You Should. I always wanted one of those GE portable radio TVs but never had one. Thanks for watching.

Be interesting to find out if it still works for real. Thanks for watching

Thank you so much. Thanks for watching.

​@@WaybackRewind I concur.

@unitedstatesirie7431 thanks for watching.😃

@@WaybackRewind is the Tyler 9" inch battery powered TV better than the 7" inch model ?

@@unitedstatesirie7431 it depends on how you intend to use it. The 7inch is small enough I could mount it on a camera as use it as a monitor. The 9 inch is more for casual tv watching. I really like mine and is very useful. I did a lot of comparisons before I picked this one. Thanks for watching.

You're Welcome and thank you.

Thanks for watching😃

I'm not sure as I bought it off eBay. Thoroughly disappointed it didn't work better. Most analog TVs don't work at this point, and it's not because of the transition to digital tv. They simply just don't work, period. Thanks for watching.

​@@WaybackRewindthey could work via converter boxes

@@illkid86 half my TVs simply didn't work at all. Converter boxes won't help a broken TV. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind I have an attachment to portable tv that dates back to 1996 in fact I've bought like 10 portable tvs in the last 6 years digital and analog and I like the analog more

@@WaybackRewind an analog tv with a vcr was giving to me a few months ago I hooked it up to a converter box and I pretended it was the analog days lol

You are welcome 😃

The cable I used, for example @18:51 is just a regular coax but with an adapter on the end to convert to 3.5 mm plug. 3.5mm to F Type Female, 1/8-inch TS Male to F-pin Female Adapter Coaxial Converter Nickel-Pated Bidirection Connector a.co/d/fg58scy Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much.💕

Thanks for the reminder, will add links to description. And thanks for watching.

Links added for all the hardware. I'm not sponsored by Amazon so not getting kickbacks, just posted for your convenience. Thanks for watching.

Thank you!! Did you happen to try this with a Realistic Pocketvision 22?

@@lori1035 This will work with any television assuming the television is still functional. The tuner on my Realistic Pocketvision 24 has drifted very badly to where the channels are off by about 30 channels from where they should be. And I get sound but barely a picture. Probably due to leaking capacitors that change value over time. Assuming your Pocketvision 22 still works this will work. Thanks.

Thank you! Subbed 👍

You're welcome😆

Channel 3 and 4 only should not be a problem ordinarily. What I have found is that old tvs being analog the tuner may have driven outside the range that it's designed to tune in. Set it to channel 4 and then try 2 or 3 or maybe 5 or 6. You might get lucky. If not maybe the TV just not longer works at all. I wasn't sure my TV still worked. I know I had it repaired in the 80s but couldn't remember if it still worked back then. Thanks for watching.

A low power TV transmitter seems like it would work over short distances. I tried to see if it would work with the power I have available but it’s not enough. If demand existed certainly they would be available. But in 2009 everyone abandoned these TVs. Thanks for watching.

Absolutely yes, assuming the TV is still functional. Any TV can be connected to the internet. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for watching.😃

Check the cable you are using on your camera. There is no universal standard for TRS plugs, (tip, ring sleeve). Sony is different from most everyone else. So its possible you might have the wrong cable. Thanks for watching.

It will work too if you follow my instructions. Good luck and thanks for watching.

@space_star_one Yes, if your phone has an HDMI output then it's easy to display that on any TV with the methods I've shown here. Thanks for watching.

Yes, ANY TV can be made into a smart TV, even if only has an external port. I show you different ways depending on the nature of that port but it can be done. If you have any specific questions just ask. Thanks for watching.

Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.

There are only two audio tracks in this video: The Golden Present Jesse Gallagher (used throughout) One Time Jeremy Black (only in the opening) Congratulations, no one has ever asked this on any of my videos, you are the first. Thanks for watching.

Yes of course, it's method number three in the description. The RF modulator will send the signal to the antenna input. No Problem. If you have any specific problems let me know. Thanks for watching.

I’ll put a list in the description, thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind how to utilize Chromecast on an old GE tv?I just get the Chromecast begin page is all.Im trying to utilize Tablo downloadable app if I can get past the opening Chromecast page.

They are portable in the sense that there are no connections to anything else. What part is not portable? Have you ever seen the televisions from the 60s and 70s? They were the size of a suitcase, and with a handle, they were considered portable. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind I have a small collection about the same size,and not parting with them.They all still work.One is a boom box B/W.Hopefully I can get them receiving somehow without all the extra connections,so they are fully portable.Here in Nerw Zealand where I live I cant buy a DTV convertor.

Are there no DTV converters compatible with your TV system? It is so disappointing to me that the world couldn't agree on a single digital TV standard. Several people complained of the bulkiness, so I am thinking of repeating the example with a more optimized setup. Thanks for watching.

@@jungleman4921 You should bring them back to life. The TV converters are getting smaller and more convenient. I am going to do a followup to demonstrate that. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching ❤️

Yes absolutely. You just need a digital converter that runs on battery power. I didn't exactly do that in this video but combine what I showed you here with what I did in the video below and it's done. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qaeUnpR60tGzc4U.htmlsi=SukJljuuiDlhWFBd

It really depends on what kind d of connections your GPX TV has. The order I did it is the preferred order. 1) If you have HDMI use that. 2) if you have audio video use that. 3) if all you have is antenna then use that. But no matter what you have, you should be able to convert it. Thanks for watching

I bought all the used ones off eBay. The biggest challenge is that most are untested so it's a gamble if they will work. Only 4 out if 10 worked and one of those was brand new so it was more like 3 of 9. Thanks for watching.

Well no, unfortunately you cannot plug an antenna directly into the second small TV, (or the third one either), and scan for channels because it cannot understand digital channels. I have a different video that shows how to connect an antenna to any TV but it requires a converter to make it work. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fLmSaZqnm9-5aHU.html It's not difficult, but different. Thanks for watching.

I didnt show over the air channels per se, but if you do this method over the air channels are available via the internet with apps. Also in the video I did on free over the air TV those techniques will work on portable TVs if it was an antenna jack, (and most do) and the converter is battery powered, some are. Perhaps I will show that in a follow up video but great question and thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind Welcome

Can’t you use a converter box maybe idk

And a power bank or power station

@@ElevatorWasher5000 I think possible if runs on battery or power off the vehicle but I’m not certain.Im just exploring different methods and scenarios.

@11:40 has 25,000mAh. @17:52 has 26,800mAh Thanks for watching

I wish I knew how to do that. Oh I can solder passably, but de-soldering and re-soldering 100s of caps without frying the surrounding components, probably not. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind​​⁠do those tvs that are rolling have v-hold and h-hold, because if they do and work properly, adjusting them in the back should fix the picture like how it did in my case

I just went to power up the Panasonic pop-up and it spewed battery acid all over me and failed to light up. So it has bigger issues now. Afraid it needs a complete rebuild. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind Damn i didn’t know it was that bad fr💀💀💀

could probably optimize it with shorter wires. Thanks for watching.

Not safe in what way? Voltages are all very small. But thanks for watching.

I think they meant like you could trip yourself

@@frstwhsprs oh okay. I think I would make them trip safe. Thanks for watching.

lol, nope

@@WaybackRewind What is your actual sign?

@@austinstitzel I don't believe in that, but if you must know my birthday is in May

I guess you are joking? These portable TV have zero functionality until converted, that is the context of calling them “dumb” Thanks for watching.

Fair enough, and all but one of these televisions are paperweights without some electronic help. I have other videos that show you how to get free over the air television on any TV. Thanks for watching.

@@WaybackRewind thank you so much, God bless you.

Yes, that is super easy. My last example does exactly that. Thanks for watching.
