My Sony Wega Trinitron has the usual Audio and Video jacks on the back
and there is one S-Video jack and the threaded jack where my DirecTV
cable is screwed on there and there is also one ATSC (what is ATSC?)
threaded jack on the back of the tv set.There are two Video jacks and
one Audio jacks under a little flip up panel on the front.I bought that
tv set at a Cowboy Maloney store on December 5,2006.

I have six or seven WebTV set top boxes and about that many wireless
keyboards and hand held remotes, they all work too.I have looked yet,
but I know there is a fuse inside of those WebTV boxes.

When I bought my first WebTV box on October 15,1999, I also bought a new
27 inch screen RCA CRT tv set, for my WebTV.It had ProScan.About two
something years ago, that RCA tv set kicked the bucket, it wouldn't turn
on at all, other than make a Bump noise when I tried to turn it on.I
think some capacitors or something was leaking, there was some messy
sticky stuff underneath the tv set.I set it out front for the garbage
truck to pick it up.I went to the Walmart store on Highway 80 in
Clinton, (about four or five miles West of doggy's couch) and I bought a
Sansui 27 inch screen CRT tv set, for my WebTV.

Man, if you watch the DirecTV Channel 3 modulator on your $1,000 Sony TV
don't start sweating the fine points of HDTV. You do not have golden eyes.

The first tv set I bought from a Cowboy Maloney store was a Toshiba.A
few days later that Toshiba developed a blur on the bottom left hand
side of the screen.That blur wouldn't go away.I took it back to Cowboy
Maloney and bought the Sony.I paid about $38.00 more in price difference
for my Sony.Somewhere around not much more than about $350.00 in toto, I
think, maybe it wasen't that much.I have my receipt somewhere around
here, it would take me forever to find it.No where near $1,000 did I
pay, not even near $500.00.So far, my Sony Wega Trinitron tv set is
still working just as good as new.It pulls in a Great picture, as far as
I am concerned.

You should take good care of it . Don't spill any liquids or let any
birds sit on it . The result can be cat-a-strophic .

ProScan . RCA's top-of-the-line . Nice try , designed to shut down in
case of nearly ANY malfunction and they all needed memory ic
replacements ! Bad memories-- most of them RCA and GE Tee-Vees found
a well deserved place in the dumpster ... S-video was an early
enhancement to raise the resolution to 480(i) lines . Analog days'
"HD" , sort of . My WebTV box has an S-video output in the back .
One time I hooked up a v-e-r-r-r-y e-x-p-e-n-s-i-v-e 6 foot S-video
jumper (by Kimber Kable) . It actually cost twice what I paid for the
WebTV and the WebTV keyboard combined ; the result was quite
interesting to see on a 35" 'high resolution' CRT monitor . The
devil is always in the detail ...

The temperature got down to the 40's last night.When I woked up this
morning, it was 46 degrees inside my flower box on doggy's front porch,
damn Cold! Room Warmers are Good.They are my Room Warmers and I will use
them when I want to.

Big envelope from PC World I received about a year ago, it has a DVR in
it, I don't know what's on that DVR.I wrote on that envelope in big
letters, DOG TEETH.Before doggy and I hit the sack tonight I will put
that envelope on top of my coffee cup.Ergo doggy has an appointment at
9:00 AM in the morning at Animal Medical Center to get her teeth
cleaned.At least she has teeth, I don't gots no teeth.

We got True Grit back to back on the AMC tee vee channel right now.
Well, come an see a fat old man sometime! ~ John Wayne.
