Casio Tv 1450 Cannot Get Reception?

[brownknees]

Had this for years ,worked OK in the UK until digital took over so I brought it back here to Thailand and it does not work!!On the back says "colour system PAL,tv system 1,channel UK".

Is Thailand different from this and should I junk it?!

According to this site the UK uses PAL I

and Thailand PAL B/M

You will probably get a picture but no sound.

As the Casio has AV inputs you could use it to watch a DVD??

Getting nothing whatsoever and no AV inputs ,it only has a extending antenna.

The PAL system in Thailand is different to that in the UK. It won't work.

Usually tv, have a setting on their menu were you can change that, have a deep look into it

The problem may be the channel frequencies?

I believe Thailand is still on the old VHF frequencies around 50MHz?

Europe and the UK moved to UHF 400-500MHz many years ago

so the Casio does not support VHF.

Keep it as a bit of history, and/or a paperweight.

Both Australia and Thailand uses PAL B (VHF) and PAL G (UHF).

UK uses PAL I, that means, you only get picture but not sound.

By the way, Australia is closing their Analogue services.
