May I suggest a good optician?

I can't speak for off-air signals since I don't actually watch TV, but  
the 1080p TV I acquired a while back wipes the floor with the grubby  
old raster gun it replaced. It's got a high enough resolution that  
it's practical to use it as a computer monitor, for a start. And the  
headache-inducing 50Hz flicker is no more!

CRTs are not a technology I will ever be nostalgic for.
