I have two 100hz TV's & I find them easier in the eyes then a large screen 50hz set. The first set a Grundig set from 1994 & a 2000 Philips which has a much better picture then the earlier Grundig. The Philips set uses what is called a Falconic chip that avaridges out the 2 fields to minimise the effect of double images with scrolling writing or fast moving objects.

The only thing about 100hz sets is the picture is always softer looking & is made to look sharp by using what is called a VM coil on the CRT neck near the convergance magnets. The basic idea is the feed in the luminance signal & amplify that to speed up the electron beams with the transistion from balck to white & thus sharpen the image.
