I have a analog TV that is still working fine and no plans to replace it. Over time, it has developed an audio hum - I'm guessing it's 60 Hz. When the picture is dark, the hum is nearly gone. The brighter the picture, the louder it is. I'm guessing some kind of filter on the speaker connections would do it, maybe something as simple as connecting a capacitor circuit.... But, as I ain't the sharpest feller with audio electronics, I thought I better ask the genius pool here!

First I thought was a power cord was near the antenna cable, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.

The key word in all this is "cheap". Anything over $10 is way out of line.

Thanks for all the good info. If I had a place to work, I would take a look, but the most practical for this one is to get a replacement set, new or used.

I use a CRT monitor on one of the computers here and LCD displays can't compare with his colors. But the power cost is definitely higher -- plus, more importantly during the summer - it heats up the room...
