Looks like the frame IC is either faulty or has dry joints. Its common for
them to run hot and fracture the leg soldering. The chips not too expensive,
but requiressomeone good at soldering to change it

I've a 27" JVC AV-27820 TV that has a band of lines running across the
bottom. The lines vary in width but are generally thin and dance up and
a bit withinthe band. The band started at the very bottom, but has
expanded to fill up the bottom quarter or third of the screen over the
last few weeks. The only other relevant fact is that jiggling the power
cord can reduce or eliminate the band temporarily, for a few second to
a minute. If I had to guess, I'd say that It looks like vertical height
adjustment is too great, but of course there is no vertical height
adjustment on the TV.

I'd appreciate any idea on how to fix it. Needless to say, going to a
repair shop is out of the question. It would cost more than the TV is
worth.
