We used to have one of those Dynatrons, died many years ago but we
still have the wooden cabinet though :)

I have a Sony KV28FD1 which has PAP (Picture and Picture) which
splits the screen down the middle giving 2 x 4:3 pictures with the
sound for the LH picture though the speakers and the RH picture
though the headphones. It also splits the screen with teletext so
you can see the picture in the LH screen and teletext in the RH one.
