I do know of few pre-war sets in England that are used on a fairly regular basis for daily viewing from Freeview/Sky boxes or DVD's, so the comment about this being the oldest set is a bit of a stretch. I do agree that that is one nice looking set.

You can find out more about how the converter works by downloading the user manual from: http://converter.home.comcast.net/~converter/

Thank you, Darryl! That's a very pleasant surprise to see. Much appreciated.
Regards and a tip o' the hat from Tom
