Sony KLVS32A10
With roadside finds you can never be too sure what to expect.
I picked it up and I was sure it was a plasma. It was really a CCFL LCD. It was built in July 2005 and had HDMI, VGA, S-VHS, composite and component inputs. Upon powering it up, I discover it has an NTSC tuner only! What was Sony thinking? The HD roll-out was well under way in 2005. Our station went HD in 2000. It was kind of a competition in the market.

Thats a keeper. I have a Sony 32" about the same year. Not
having a HD tuner was probably for a price step. Several different spec displays were available also. Mine has does have the HD tuner. Anyhows the CCFL was more reliable & a more natural pix IMHO. AND that is a real Sony made in Japan. Not Chi-Com junk. 73 Zeno LFOD ! |

I suspect Cuba is still analog. Too bad they never got their nuclear power plant going. (They gave up.) Their power plants are oil and gas fired (fuel supplied from Venezuela).
That image on the screen is a still from a DVD on a Blu-player player which has an HDMI output. I don't know if its my eyes or what but LED sets look like they're flickering to me. Seems like a very fast flicker. Might be the refresh rate. Attached is Sony_1 which had to be re-sized.
