Watch TV from the 90s and earlier
To make the 80's TV more authentic, is there an option to change channels via a pair of vice-grips that are permanently attached to the stub where the missing/broken channel knob should be?  Because that's how I experienced it.The static effect is nice for creating a low-fi vibe, but some kind of CRT effect (like many arcade & console emulators have) would be even better.
