Many of these sets only require replacement of the lamp to bring them back  
to life.  Lamps are available from many sources, usually for under $100.00. 
 That is the price for a premium lamp. Non OEM lamps are cheaper and are  
just as good.  If you have one of these sets, purchase of a spare lamp  prior 
to failure will guarantee that you don't miss your favorite show. Most  
lamps require only a screwdriver to replace and "even a caveman can do  it."

Hi,


Just looking for general information. I see an old  projection type 
television, about a 50" screen, going for scrap. Is there  anything of value 
electronically that can be salvaged from these units? The  usual solid state tv is 
a waste of effort. Are these any  different?

Thanks.
