nick: Cathode Ray tubes used an electro magnet to move a beam around inside a glass tube. This could result in an audible buzz.
LCD technology is provided by "solid state" digitally addressable pixels - no magnet, no buzz.

nick: For many years all old the analogue broadcasts were broadcast in a 14:9 letterbox.
It could be that having black bars, as well as the picture blurring of modulation and demodulation reduced the effect compared to having full-screen full-width, high level signals provided by SCART.
I would say "get a modulator", but you'd be wasting you money. You can get a full-HD Freeview TV for less than £100 - 19" Furrion TV | Ebuyer.com ?
