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 ........
