I am pleased to report that the Wisconsin Computer Club now has a coveted JVC Video Sphere TV set. Woohoo!





Still has the "solid state" sticker on there and everything. Looking forward to "rolling" this out to future shows! 😄

To lean all of it, I had to remove the visor, which thankfully came off without any trouble. Extremely dusty in there!

While the set is very cool, I regret to say that when powered on it doesn't "do" anything. I'm hoping that this turns out to be like the Zenith monitor, and the fuse has just come loose. I guess we will see soon enough. This set will definitely be fixed soon- either my me, or by a pro (if I can find one).

Here it is side by side with it's predecessor, the JVC Video Capsule. The video capsule does work, but it hasn't been to a show in ages.

Was that the one listed on Craigslist/FB Marketplace? I remember seeing one posted a few months ago but it was a bit out of my price range. Cool find!

I don't think so, as that one had different marks on it, and didn't have the sticker on the visor.

Wild to think that there are a bunch of these in the area.
