Abstract: A toy-model quantum system is proposed. At a given integer $N$ it is defined by the pair of $N$ by $N$ real matrices $(H,Theta)$ of which the first item $H$ specifies an elementary, diagonalizable non-Hermitian Hamiltonian $Heq{H}^{d}agger$ with the real and explicit spectrum given by the zeros of the $N-$th Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. The second item $ThetaeqI$ must be (and is being) constructed as the related Hilbert-space metric which specifies the (in general, non-unique) physical inner product and which renders our toy-model Hamiltonian selfadjoint, i.e., compatible with the Dieudonne equation $H^{d}aggerTheta=Theta,H$. The elements of the (in principle, complete) set of the eligible metrics are then constructed in closed band-matrix form. They vary with our choice of the $N-$plet of optional parameters, $Theta=Theta(veckappa)>0$ which must be (and are being) selected as lying in the positivity domain of the metric, $veckappain{calD}^{(physical)}$.
