I've got a Plasma and a Radio Ham neighbour.
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.

42" plasma HD at 399.
Quite a nice looking set

Plasma!
Wasn't that one of John Logie Baird's inventions?

On the whole (especially for the money) they still do a far better job
than LCDs.

And draw around double the power than LCD

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.

Whether he is or not I couldn't possibly comment. But Dr Hfuhruhurr was
the originator of that quote, not Brian. Who for perfectly good reasons
didn't see that the quoting had gone awry.

@ 130w average (LG 42" plasma - and it does depend on the picture
being viewed) It's really not double.
An LG 42" LCD requires 134w so your 'argument' doesn't really hold
much sway.

An LED LCD ia a lot lower. Mine (37" Samsung) is nominally 135W (IIRC) but
runs a good picture at 70W in daylight and as low as 50W in low light.
I was a bit tempted by a plasma TV but 42" is about the min. and is a bit
big for this room.

LED will probably be my next option as costs are definitely coming
down and they're the next best thing to Plasma IMO. Plus I think that
being so thin is just simply amazing. you could almost use picture
hooks to hang them

720P but about web site states 1024x768 resolution?

It will be 720p and display SVGA on the PC port.


Where's the "HD Signal Compatible" sticker?

by about 3kg.
