Sony EV-5500 8MM VCR RF Tuner Fault
 

The tuner selects ok, but the RF video out on all channels 'phases'
from clear picture to garbled and back to clear every 1 sec. Audio is
fine. The rest of the VCR operates perfectly. I got it off Ebay a while
ago, but don't recall if I initially hooked it up to cable or not, so
not exactly sure if it came this way. I can probably fix it if this is a
repairable fault, but unlikely to find a replacement tuner.
Thoughts on where to start?
Thanks
JR

think again bub. They won't sell you a replacement tuner, they want to
sell you more of their **** that breaks.

Take it to the nearest trash bin and leaving it there.
