Excellent signal receiving sensitivity. Great picture.

Mono output, but workable with wireless audio transmitter.

Casio's 970/980 is a good little handheld TV

The Casio 970/980 is not the best television ever. But for the price it's a good bargain. I live in a metro area and some channels come in very good, while others look terrible. So they definitely could have put a better antenna in this machine. But I ...

Economical, good picture when reception is also good, just all-around 'neat'.

It's kind of fussy about reception, have to have it just right.

Great little TV!

This TV is great as far as I'm concerned. Others seem to think it has bad reception, but not for me, it pulls in all my local broadcast channels perfectly and even faintly gets some from the next town 50 mi. away! One of the best features for me is the...

Good reception, digital tuner, excellent price.

Antenna can only go up or to the left.

The Casio TV-970: Mediocre, but Worth the Price

I bought the Casio Portable TV-970 the day after Thanksgiving at a massive Best Buy after-Thanksgiving sale (or “Red Friday” as some people like to call it). The Price of the TV was about $75 and Best Buy offered a $20 rebate that was mailed...

A good tv, but not great

For the price of this TV, it is a very good TV. I would have liked to have seen a bigger screen (but that is what you get when you have portable) and probably better reception. However, reception is only as good as the transmitter and distance, not...

Great picture, and sound, especially for the price

Reception not totally great
