  Out of interest, before taking the set back can you not at least take it to someone you know who has satelite TV and plug the SCART in, just to verify that it was the signal and not the TV?

  You may want to reinvestigate Plasma or LCD if you eventually get terrestrial digital, and HDTV takes off.
  
  Best Regards,

    I've tried a DVD, and the picture is fine, pretty much as I expected.

    However, I rarely watch DVDs. This TV was bought primarily to watch via terrestrial analogue signals. As I've explained elsewhere in this thread, we don't have access to cable, or satellite (trees in the way), or terrestrial digital (not in this area yet). There seems little point in paying extra for a poorer picture using the existing signal.

    Given the signal we do have, and the purpose for which we want a TV, our best choice appears to be old-fashioned CRT.
    
    Cheers,
