My dad had one called quorumvision-- it was a pair of TV glasses. You could see through the lens of the glasses the TV stations. Good luck finding one of those out in the wild, they were only a prototype apparently.
You can build an electronics transmitter based off cameras circuits. They can transmit a camera to one of those lower frequencies and do a camera image like a baby monitor or outside or door camera.
you should get that Realistic recapped. you also need an adapter for your connection there, i think you can plug in a 3.5mm TRS 75 ohm adapter, you just screw the two connectors on your coaxial adapter to it, and amazon has some that are straight up a screw-on female coaxial on one end and a 3.5mm single rig (TRS - Tip Ring Sleeve) adapter. good investment for your types of TVs, i got a lil black and white Olympus 5" B&W CRT with Mono AV in (and takes C Cells) so i wont need it for most applications but with these little RF only sets, that 3.5mm adapter is a god send, as well as you can get HDMI to Coax out adapters now as well hint hint.
That realistic TV was OEM by Casio and if my memory is correct they suffer from bad capacitors that leak and go high ESR. I have never used one of those pocket LCD TVs but I have used a Sega game gear and LCDs are horrible by today's standards but I personally don't care as it adds to the charm.
I had a Casio LCD Pocket Colour TV around 1990. It ran on 4 x AA batteries, which lasted 5 minutes, and the screen was backlit by a miniature fluorescent tube! TheTV was obviously analogue. The picture (when you could get one on the telescopic antenna) was horrendous! Totally unwatchable! The sound was tinny! A piece of Japanese junk! In contrast, my 2020 50" Hisense 4K UHD LCD, is LED backlit, and the picture is amazing! ... Yes, LCD TV has come a long way since that horrendous 90s Casio! That Realistic TV (with an unrealistic picture) is almost certainly a rebadged Casio, and is a piece of junk, like mine was! 🤣 ... HG: It also contains mercury! ☠️💀👻 Pretty sure my Casio had a 3.5 mm AV input jack.

Radio Shack must have partnered with Casio on these TV's as I owned both models and the only difference was the branding logo.
This looks exactly like the Casio my parents had in the early nineties.

I got Radio Shack catalogs every year. I don't remember that.
I had one of those Realistic Portable TVs back when. Didn't work then either.
I had an Epson in 87 or 88

I have the clam shell version of this. It's made by Casio.
The Realistic one will have Elna caps in it. Which are notorious for going bad.
