He was horrified to hear I have got a Plasma, but less so to learn that i've had it for 2 years without bothering him in the least. It would appear that some plasma TV sets do radiate very badly, and some don't. As far as interfering with radio reception is concerned, there are many situations where the interference is not immediately obvious. It's often just a general imperceptible, insidious rise in background noise as the number of sources of interference increases. This may not be enough to totally ruin reception. More often it is a case of rendering some of the weaker signals difficult - and occasionally impossible - to hear. The sufferer often tries to alleviate the effects of the interference (sometimes with a fair degree of success) or simply 'lives with it'. It may take some time (even a year or two) before it becomes obvious that interference has risen to a generally unacceptable level, and the sufferer feels obliged to start to make complaints about it. -- Ian |

Is it the LG mentioned though, I have heard these do have certain, ahem,
problems probably due to the way they attempt to stop the low level pulsing some have complained of.

"The dog from that film you saw" wrote my 40" sony led backlit lcd weighs less than the 26" sharp lcd it replaced by about 3kg. I've just replaced my 8 YO 19" computer LCD monitor by a 23" widescreen HD LED one, so I could use the former upstairs for a different project. Apart from the improvement in clarity, I was amazed at teh difference in weight and thickness between the two. Apart from the upper right corner the new one runs virtually at ambient temperature too. I may need to use the central heating to replace the heat the old one produced. -- BD Change lycos to yahoo to reply |

My wife is watching something right now which is a speech-only station. Telephone quality would be adequate (if annoying). What it does is fine. OK, so there's nothing below 200Hz. It doesn't matter on that type of programme. On a concert, OTOH, every dB matters. Andy |
