My dad has a 34" Sony CRT HDTV and to be honest his PQ looks grainy and very bad....even when I hooked up an antenna via OTA. I tried to calibrate it, but it looked horrible...HD was fair, but SD was atrocious....no matter what I did, it looked bad. I have a Hitachi RP CRT HDTV, 51" and the PQ via SD in very nice...not as good as it was before the IMG upgrade, but very nice. I live in the same area as he does and he also has FIOS. My TV is larger and therefore would show more flaws, but it looks better. I don't know what to tell you. But for the most part FIOS' PQ is about the best I have seen. What did you try to calibrate your Dad's CRT with? Mine does excellent HD, and that's even before I took the time to do a full service menu calibration.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice TV, but introduced quite a bit of noise....maybe there is a filter or setting that has to be turned off that I missed? For a 34" set, the "noise" was very prominent....at first I thought the TV was defective.
