Sorry Phil;This is a 20'' TV.These are low end units being sold ''every where'' here in Canada.To my surprise there parts & tech support is excellant,at least to there ASC's.The price of replacement parts is very good as well.Example; Tuners=6.50 FBT's=6.75 HOT's=1.35 This makes out of warranty repairs viable for these units............. BTY there website is www.pwwservice.com ........
