Hi All,

I have a akai 42" Rear Projection HDTV that is 3 years old that cost me 
$1000.00 that has a pincushion amplifier problem.  The model is a 
PT4298HD.  Look it up on the internet.  The problem has occurred with 
regularity in quite a few TVs of this model.  They are selling for 
$250.00 on ebay AS-IS pickup only.  Mine has no marks on the cabinet and 
looks to be in new condition other than the pincushion amp problem.  I 
would like to offer it up to the ham community for the first one who is 
willing to spend $100.00 on it cash on pickup.  Send me an email if 
interested.  I had opened the TV just to check that there wasn't some 
simple problem with it like the yoke coming loose.  No such luck.  To 
fix it will require some knowledge of TV repair.  Or, if in the 
business, buy it for parts.

Peter
