Default Apex TV AT3208S Strange Problems ...


Here's one ...

I bought this set about 1.5 years ago. Every now
and then it comes up with the following symptoms:

Sound cuts in and out, sometimes goes all the
way up, sometimes faint. Adjusting volume control
will change the volume bars on the screen but
have no effect on sound.

Picture expands, contracts, wobbles.

Eventually goes nearly dead, no pic, no sound.
Power button turns on red led, but no click
or anything. Leaving it off for a few minutes
then turning back on, sometimes it works normal,
sometimes the sound problems come back.

It did this the first month I had it. I was
ready to return it, then the problem went away
for a year. It comes back more frequently now.

I'm thinking power supply, but I'd like to
hear opinions.

Thanks,

JD
