Re: Samsung Plasma PN58B860Y2F low vscan



Saw this real late - will try tonight tonight or tomorrow.

What could I expect to find or figure out if it's different?

Hi I am not sure if this is the right way to introduce myself I couldn't find a way to "post a new thread" button for this forum - so I am just using Quick Reply.

Anyway - nice to meet you all.

Thank you all.
