Default TV RF Section Failure?

Post at least the chassis (CTC) number, we surmise you may have one of the

sure without the chassis number, or the model number.


Sorry, thought it was on the RF module labels..

Chassis: CTC176F2
Model: F20352SF

My RCA TV appears to have "lost" some channels.

Most channels are OK. Cable Channels 48, 49, 50 are wiped out.
Channel 65/66 experiences intereference from over the air channel 14..
Other channels that I know I should get seem to be ok, including those
that might be effected by other OTA channels. RCA input video is ok
so I surmise it's an RF problem.

Here is the RF section:

Is there a way to open it, service it, replace (guess I could desolder
it), tune it, etc?
