In this case, why should bad solder joints on the tuner case produce

Perhaps the tuner case provides a good ground path for a bypass
capacitor in the vertical sync circuit?


No need to speculate on this one.



Thanks for the information. I'm glad to see there was a class-action suit.

But the speculation remains. There is (for me) no obvious connection between
bad solder joints in the tuner shield and the symptoms described.

All the more need for open-mindedness when working on a product, and a
willingness to "try anything".
