Ok Don,

I'm no technocrat But I have had 100hz for the past 10 years and the qualityn is amazing. The flicker rate I believe.

Years ago I was in the TV department of Alders (remember them?) and they had two tv's next to one another - one 50hz, one 100hz. The difference was astonishing.

More than what I see I cannot comment on.
