CHEAP Pegasus ST09 9-Inch LCD HDTV with ATSC Tuner, Gray

I bought this little TV to use with a wireless camera system by X-10. I wish the camera system worked as well as the TV. It provides a clear picture and good sound for the size of the speakers. Out of curiosity I scanned for the digital channels it would pick up in the Detroit area and was surprised at the number of channels those little rabbit ears would pick up. They have to be rotated to get any particular channel clearly. Instead of the snow and static with analog sets, the picture is pixillated and the sound is choppy if the signal isn’t optimal. There were about six stations I could tune in my apartment building and three in my office. I also tested it with an X-10 audio/video sender/receiver attached to my cable box. It produces an good picture and good sound and all the channels I get on my cable box can be viewed. There are all the usual adjustments for color, tint, sharpness, brightness, and contrast and they have a decent range of adjustment. I read one review that stated the picture was too dark no matter what adjustment was made. I did note that one direct air station had a much darker picture than the rest and could not be lightened by adjusting the brightness or contrast and I don’t have any idea why this would be so on only one station. My use specific complaint is that the jacks for A/V in are on the back instead of the side or bottom. I want to mount this on the back wall of my computer hutch where it is easily seen and out of the way, but the plugs prevent this since they go into the back of the TV. I will have to build some sort of wood frame to bring the set out far enough to connect in the A/V plugs and still mount it on the wall. Overall, the picture is clear, bright and stable. The sound is good from such a small set and it loud enough to hear well. I don’t expect it to have the same HD picture my much larger (32″) LCD TV has or the sound from my home theater setup. That it is small and light weight, can be used with a cable box, DVD player and taken almost anywhere are real pluses. For specific uses, I would highly recommend this TV and would have given it 5 stars but for the A/V plugs being on the back. I’m not sure from the description what the difference is between the ST09 and ST09 B that costs more other than the color since the product description is limited but identical to this one as far as it goes.
