Hi,
I have a Casio 2.5" pocket TV and a 5" portable LCD TV. Both of
these have the similar problem. I cant seem to adjust the backlight to
an appropriate setting. I tried adjusting the brightness knob on the
TV, but it either goes too dark or too bright. When i set it to an
average setting, i cant seem to see much. In order to be able to watch
the tv program, i hv to view it from an angle.

Anyone has any idea what is the problem? Is there anyway i can repair
it?

Thanks for any information..

'Brightness' might not be the issue. Does either TV have a 'contrast'
setting. The juggling of these two parameters with LCD screens, can be quite
delicate to achieve a result of optimum viewing angle with a reasonable
level of brightness. Have you ever tried watching the LCD in the back of the
seat in front of you on the airplane, when the dick in that seat decides to
recline it into your lap ? It's then virtually impossible to get a watchable
picture, only having control of brightness, without contorting yourself into
Quasimodo ...

Small LCD screeens - even alpha ones - always seem the worst for this
effect.

....and in any case, if the OP is in the U.S., those handheld sets are
about to become obsolete with the advent of digital-only broadcasting here.
