Rumour has it that this plasma screen was a donation from YUSU many years ago.  No one of that era remains to confirm or deny this.

There is a permanent burn of the YSTV logo in this screen, as it is often left on a logo during broadcasts when on camera.  There is a white-bar-scroll function to mitigate this, but it is never used.  In more recent times, images of pineapples and Nicholas Cage have been burnt into it, but have not lasted long.
Doesn't natively support HD-SDI or HDMI (we don't have the option cards), but using a HD-SDI to VGA converter allows it to display 1080i50 signals from the vision path.
=== HDMI Module ===
Donated by [[hist:Peter Eskdale|Peter Eskdale]], allowing the TV to be now connected over HDMI (allegedly uses HDMI 1.2). It should automatically negotiate to run at 1280x720p, it should also be possible to output 1080i50 although it is only a 768p panel.

== Location and use ==
 
The screen now lives in the main studio on a raised wheeled platform. The screen is sometimes used as part of the set for game shows or for tea time chat. Also useful for those in front of the camera to see themselves either as the output of the stream or as the multi-view. Rumour has it that it also has been used late at night to watch back the original footage of Jim'll sodomise you.
