I picked up this Palsonic TV which seems to work fine except for badly needing a degauss - blue in the middle to red in the corners. Thought if I fix it it'll go in my parent's holiday house...
It doesn't do the degaussing buzz on first turn-on, so I'm assuming that the MX73 18 ohm posistor is rooted. I know what's supposed to be inside these, but I don't know what the cold terminal resistances should be - anyone? Guessing I'll find 18 ohms somewhere ;-) In-circuit, I see 40 ohms to one pin, just a couple of ohms between the other two.
How fussy is the TV likely to be - can I fit "almost any" posistor and expect it to work? Where's the best place to get one?
