        They also made a high pitched whine from the flyback transformer. My parents couldn’t hear it but even as an adult I could.

        I was very sensitive to that noise. Walking down the street in my neighborhood, I could always tell when someone had a tv on in their house. My friends were amazed by that.

        My hearing isn’t what it used to be though.
