Hi, my step-father has recently had his much loved and 'old' Samsung portable TV thrown out in hard rubbish. I am on a quest to find a replacement. I don't know how old, but guess at least 20 years. It was fairly compact, with two antennas on top. He used to keep it on top of the filing cabinet and it took up about half the room on top. If anyone has any ideas where I might purchase one, I would be most grateful.

Daniel

Without a photo or model number, it's difficult to help. Suggest you Google around and try to find an image of the model in question.

As for locating one, old portable TVs are listed fairly regularly on eBay, Oztion (now Quicksales), Trading Post, Gumtree, etc.

Suggest you set up permanent searches on those places for Samsung portable TV and check out each match.

Also, with the changeover to digital imminent, old TVs are being dumped by uncaring people on the sides of roads in increasing numbers, so keep your eye out.
