I know some of those did use a bulb in back of the LCD screen.I had some that were burned out and I held a flash light on the LCD and see the freq numbers on it.I suppose you can replace the bulb with a LED with a voltage dropping resistor hook to the PS.
I have to fix my late mothers same era Sears set with a blown dial light later sometime with a LED.
Wow 120watts.Don't wake up you neighbors.LOL.

The scorch mark is inside the plastic bezel which is why I was thinking it might of been from the bulb that was in there getting too hot. anyways I just use it for my LCD Projector for watching movies, and to listen to music when I'm working on something in the basement like a TV or a Radio, so I don't do anything too serious listening wise with it, although I know if I'm downstairs working and my housemate is home I would try and keep it down so he won't complain about my music being too loud (the basement is directly under his room where he has his gaming rig) although his gaming rig has a set of Yamaha 2.1 Surround Sound Speakers that I had sold him for his computer which he cranks pretty loud and I can hear it from my side of the house pretty easily sometimes. So I would just say we'd be even, in any case.
