Notes

This set is known to have used two tube models. The M.T. model was made in the USA and is listed in the service manual; but the Thomson model, made in China, is not.

This set employs velocity modulation that ruins pixel art. There are two ways to disable it:

  • Unplug jumper from the yoke or
  • Enter the service menu and set option "VSM GAIN" to 0.

After that, it is also advised to turn sharpness in the standard menu all the way down. Doing these steps will make it look much better.
