The '''Sony KV-13M20''' is a 13-inch NTSC Trinitron television built on Sony's BA-3 chassis. US sets carry chassis number SCC-J84D-A and Canadian sets SCC-J93A-A; the same service manual covers the closely related KV-13M30, KV-13M31, KV-14R20, KV-14RD1 and KV-14PM1.<ref name="sm">Sony KV-13M20/13M30/13M31/14R20/14RD1/14PM1 BA-3 Chassis Service Manual, Sony Corporation. https://archive.org/details/sony-tv-kv-13m-20-13m-30-13m-31-14r-20-14rd-1-14pm-1-ch.ba-3-1</ref><br />
<br />
The tuner covers the American TV standard across VHF channels 2–13, UHF 14–69 and cable channels 1–125, through a 75-ohm F-type antenna terminal.<ref name="sm" /><ref name="om">Sony KV-13M20 Operating Instructions, Sony Corporation. https://archive.org/details/kv-13-m-20</ref> The set is mono: a single full-range 90 × 50 mm (3½ × 2 in.) 8-ohm speaker is driven at 2 W, and there is one rear composite A/V input with a single audio channel — the two-input front-and-rear arrangement belongs to the KV-13M30 and KV-13M31 only.<ref name="sm" /><ref name="om" /><br />
<br />
The cabinet measures 358 × 342 × 401 mm (W/H/D) and the set weighs 10 kg. Power consumption is 75 W in use and 6 W in standby from a 120 V, 60 Hz supply.<ref name="om" /><br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
<br />
Composite video is accepted at 1 Vp-p into 75 ohms unbalanced with negative sync, and audio at 500 mV RMS for 100% modulation into 47 kilohms.<ref name="sm" /> A headphone jack is fitted, and the on-screen AUDIO menu includes a SPEAKER setting that mutes the internal speaker so that sound is heard only through an external system, along with a balance control.<ref name="sm" /><ref name="om" /><br />
<br />
The television ships with the RM-Y116 Remote Commander and two AA (R6) batteries, a dipole antenna and an antenna connector.<ref name="sm" /><ref name="om" /><br />
