Yes, good deals available on this set & you can connect as you say, however don't go mad on the "Quality" Scart lead, £10 is more than enough; don't fall for the "Monster" con!

andy173 · 01-01-2009, 14:24

It's 32 inches, corner to corner - actual visible area (unlike a CRT).

They also weigh 19Kg (having carried 465 upstairs in the last couple of months

).

CRT's quote the actual size of the tube, but in later years often also give the visible size in brackets.
