    SHARP JC-AV1 JC-TV10 Portable TV Radio Cassette Player 1986 Japan. WORKING !!!!!.  THIS IS IT!!  THE UNICORN!  I've had this wonderful item for nearly 30 years....AND IT IS STILL WORKING!! The JC-AV1 is very similar to the JC-TV10 except it does not have Dolby (back then it was more of a signal suppressor/muffler more than anything else). So let me answer a few questions you may have: does the radio work, YES; does the tape player work, YES; in both directions, YES; does the auto-reverse function properly, YES; does the TV work, YES BUT FEW TV STATIONS (IF ANY) STILL BROADCAST AN ANALOG SIGNAL IN THE U.S.
    CHECK THE PICS! Hopefully you see the red power light on!  I took multiple shots of the cassette play so that you can see (hopefully) movement in the hub as it was playing (see small white semi-circle at the hub). I took pictures of TV static to show that it indeed does work. VERY CLEAN TAPE CARRIAGE!
    This item is sold AS-IS. There is one issue: the headphone jack has a slight wonk and sometimes sends signal into one ear only...the headphone also has to be properly fitted into the jack in order for the JC-AV1 to turn on.
    This item will come with leatherette pouch and antennae. If possible, I'll even throw in the original headphones for the completists among you. Actual mailing option will be determined and advised at time of mailing. GET IT NOW!! THERE WON'T BE ANOTHER OF THIS RARE VINTAGE ITEM IN WORKING CONDITION!
