The older Panasonics are GREAT televisions. The tubes tend to last forever. For $10 to $20 max in parts it will be fixed. We can help. New TV's are junk. I haven't seen a solidly built one since 2000. You've got one of the last good Panasonic sets in my opinion. You WON'T get that kind of reliablity out of a new TV. And when you're in there look at all the power resistor solder connection, they like need to be resoldered. Also the horizontal driver transfomer. When those connections go it takes out the output transistor. Send me a model number I likely have a service manual or something close.
