Small televisions

[butterflyfish]

I bought a small 9 inch LCD HDTV at Target last year.  I think it was about $100.00  Works great, though we've only used it to watch DVDs.  You sort of have to be right in front of it because of the small size to get the best picture, but both my boys watch it with very little arguments.

any electronic or big box store will have what you need.
walmart had numerous starting at $114

you can get flat lcd's for just over $200

Even though we plan to buy a new flat screen for the camper next year, the big issue is will we still be able to receive any TV stations? If using a "rabbit ear" antenna the answer will be No. If we have a cable ready site, then Yes. (Haven't seen too many of these, but now with no analog TV maybe more will come?) To receive any TV stations in the pup using rabbit ears will require one of the convertor boxes. So are we replacing the heavy large portable to have to carry two pieces in? Yes and I assume between the convertor box and the flat screen, no space will be gained either!

The new television will receive digital signals and the rabbit ears will work fine with it.
Converters are only required on televisions old enough that the digital processing equipment was not included.
Remember digital is NOT high definition

How can you tell from looking at the TV if it is digital or analog?
If it is cable ready, does that make it digital?
Thanks, Anne

The FCC has a web page dedicated to the Digital conversion:

 You really can't tell the difference looking at the actual TV, but the carton that it comes in will say if it has a digital tuner. When I purchased my TV for the PU, the carton that it came in said  13 " Digital TV / DVD combo.
  Digital TV means that the tuner decodes the input signal using digital technology rather the old analog tech.
  And no, cable ready does not make it digital. Cable ready only means that the input jack for the antena has a cable type connector in the back of the unit.

 Hope this helps.
