Can a tv input signal connection at the input coax connector affect
only the picture and not the sound??


I have a 25" Sharp TV, CRT, that often loses its picture, but never
the sound. (Other than that, the picture and sound are very good.
It's analog and I only use channel 3 and a separate tuner.)

If by "loses its picture" you mean that the picture abruptly and
completely dissappears, with no effect at all on the sound,

Yes, exactly.

I'd say "no".

If that's the effect you're seeing, then I'd suspect an intermittent
fault in the set, either a defective connector, or a dry joint, which
gets nudged so as to form a connection for a while when you tug at the
cable.

I'll look for that. The TV is so big (25") I need to make a lot of
room on the work bench, and before I do t hat it will work fine for 2
days.

But the clues fropm the two of you should speed things up when I do
try to fix it. Being a basement cowboy is not so great after all.

Thanks, and iI think I forgot to thank Geoffrey. Thanks, G.
