Right, I turned in a portable TV last week.
This one was about 30 years old (seventies), and was still working OK,
but no analog transmissions here anymore, all you get is nice equal
distributed noise when tuning in to a digital station.
There are SEVERAL HDTV set top tuners out there that will pipe the
finished signal into a standard TV.
The boxes that are sold here are equipped with a SCART connector, a waste.
I imagine you haven't looked very hard in that case. Many have UHF outputs.

If you had as much as a clue, did not cut half the posting
I wasn't replying to the bits I trimmed.

To enlighten the others: to buy anything with any sort of analog output sucks,
as analog is dead at least here in the Netherlands (except for audio).
Buying a settop box with USB output, if you have a laptop with USB, creates the
portable TV with much better quality and recording possibility.
The USB settop box I bought runs from a 12 V adapter, so also from a car battery.
I researched quite a bit to get the best deal, and SCART was not part of that,
let alone a horrible interference prone, PAL coding artefacts decorated
UHF analog output.
