Great features for the price

Great purchase, I shopped around at the time for a TV at this price range with all the functionality that this one had. The ultimate selling point for this television was the component input. Most of the televisions out there at the time in this price ...

Cheap 36 in TV, get what you pay for

If you want a fairly large TV for an affordable price this is it. Forget about watching the beautiful HDTV channels or progressive scan DVDs this is not a digital TV. The sound and picture are ok. The menu is sparse because there are not too many bells...

Product Specifications

CT-36D12D is a state-of-the-art 36" diagonal stereo television. It combines a nifty design and a high functionality with the comfort you need. The 3-line digital comb filter provides a very accurate means of separating the color from the black-and-white in the television signal. It works with 3 lines of picture information and is effective in removing dot crawl and hanging dots both horizontally and vertically. Fine Pitch picture tube counteracts distracting ambient light, producing a picture with high contrast and accurate color reproduction. Surround Sound simulates stereo sound - even from a monaural source - by delaying the original, 2-channel sound to create a "surround" effect. Channel Lock and Game Guard functions let parents control television use and prevent video games and other video sources from being displayed on the TV. You can lock out up to 4 channels, all channels plus all video inputs, or channels 3 & 4 plus all video inputs for either 12, 24 or 48 hours. With Channel Lock, a user-programmed 4-digit code must be entered to deactivate the feature.
