Thanks Dani. It was the flyback. Best regards, Lenny.

This set tries three times to power up. You hear the little "chirp"
when you first plug it in. Attempting to power up, you can hear three
soft "thumps" in the speakers. The Hot is good. I pulled the HOT and
tried it and the green light now stays on . It seems to me I did this
once before on one of these to rule out, "or in" the flyback and I was
able to get audio which pointed to a bad fly. Am I correct in this
assumption that ( most likely) pulling the hot should produce audio if
the problem is the flyback? Of course its very hard to know where you
are in the menu without a display. I tried selecting a known channel
with the remote, repeatedly pressing the input button and also the mute
but I get no sound. Does anyone have any suggestions for me so that I
can further assess this correctly? Thanks for any help. Lenny Stein,
