9-Inch LCD Tv with ATSC Tuner. . . More >>
This small set meets our needs perfectly. It was purchased to replace our trusty 5 in B&W analog at the time of the digital conversion. We use this set only in the bathroom in the morning to watch news and sports while getting ready for work, so we are not with concerned with receiving scores of channels. It took about 9 days to arrive using the free shipping option. The set was well packaged and unlikely to be damaged with routine handling. Setup was a breeze following stepwise instructions (with pictures) on a quick setup card. After the digital conversion the auto scan quickly picked up 14 over-the-air channels (which included all 6 major channels in this area) using only the provided very small HD antenna. The antenna cable connects at the top of the set rather obtrusively; this could have been better designed. We have not tried a cable connection for comparison. Reception for the major channels is good. The picture is clear and sharp, far better than our old 5 in analog set, but it is far from the quality of our 46 in Sony LCD. The picture varies somewhat from channel to channel, some being a little dark and the next a little too light with a washed-out appearance. This can be corrected fairly well using the brightness and contrast controls which are easily accessible via the full function remote. The sound is adequate for this small set and the way we use it: in a bathroom, with the water running. We did not set our expectations unrealistically high.
We highly recommend this 9 in digital TV for use in a kitchen, bath, workshop, etc. for over-the-air reception in a tight space.

Although its 9 inch screen is larger than LCD TVs in it price range, the picture quality is poor and very dark. No amount of adjusting will help. The sound from the tiny speakers is actually worse than the picture. I do NOT recommend this product.

We receive over-the-air only. We live in Houston and have strong signals. Reception with the little antenna that came with the TV is very poor. Reception with rabbit ears is still poor but better. Reception with our large attic antenna was good.
The digital converter box we purchased for our other TV receives all stations strong with rabbit ears, so I was disappointed that the TV only picked up about half of the stations using the same rabbit ears.
Also, I don’t know what is HDTV about it. Especially since the resolution is only 640 x 234.
Anyway, the picture is decent and it’s a decent little TV if you’ve got a strong enough signal or are just using it for a monitor.

The Pegasus ST09 9 inch LCD HDTV delivers high quality picture quality and sound for a very low price. My wife has it set up in the kitchen,connected to the portable antenna included with the purchase and she gets all of the over the air channels. . . . crystal clear with very good audio. We’ll be taking a road trip next week and will take it with us. This was a great buy. Pegasus ST09 9-Inch LCD HDTV with ATSC Tuner, Gray

Not so Much. . . Am on my 3rd TV. . . 1st-No Sound. . . 2nd-Green stripe on picture. . . 3rd-OK so far. . . Only used 3 days. . . Amazon service is great. . . Can’t say so much for the tv. . . If I did not need one this size to fit on a shelf, I would not be going thru getting the 2nd, 3rd, etc. . . Don’t expect perfect TV but it is watchable. . .
