I absolutely love it but if it broke down&nbsp;there&#39;s no way I&#39;d spend money getting it repaired - just not worth it. It sounds like a power supply problem but I&#39;m no expert, member <strong>nobby</strong> may be able to help as he&#39;s the CRT expert on here.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Chris.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>http://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/thread/179032.aspxFri, 30 Jan 2009 16:51:11 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:179032Graham19820http://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/thread/179032.aspxhttp://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=179032<p>Hi:</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Welcome to Beoworld!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p> It is almost certainly not worth repairing in fiscal terms unless the problem is simple and you can fix it yourself. B&amp;O CRT televisions are very cheap at the moment and will probably continue to be so. On eBay you can buy similar working televisions for &lt;&pound;30. Although for how long they will remain working is obviously an unknown.</p> <p>If the televison has sentimental or nostalgic value then you could of course repair it. I often do this with old computers just because it gives me something to do but this obviously does not make economic sense.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Hope this helps</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Graham</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>http://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/thread/179012.aspxFri, 30 Jan 2009 14:29:49 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:179012arrann0http://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/thread/179012.aspxhttp://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=179012<p>Being a new member to Beoworld i have a LX2800 tv which will switch on to standby only&nbsp;and has no remote, though i have a remote with the LX2500 which works with it. Is it repairable?, is it worth repairing?. Or should i just scrap it.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Paul</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
