Crosley TV Weird Problem
Hi all.
I bought, or got the TV for free. Its an older crosley 27" unit. The problem is when the screen is black (between commercials) or during some commercials, weird sometimes colored lines appear. This picture is taken during a commercial: http://s31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...t=100_1733.jpg And as soon as I switch the satellite, which brings up a blue screen, it comes in normal. http://s31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...t=100_1737.jpg |

My guess is bad cap in the sync separator section. The set loses sync lock in black as the signal amplitude is smallest when black. Schematic would help a lot. The actual part cost is around a dime. Unfortunately the tools and education to actually do it costs somewhat more. GG |

Crosley TV Weird Problem
I presume the tele is only acting as a monitor for what the satellite
receiver is tuning in, correct. IMHO the problem maybe in the satellite receiver tather than the tele.?? Since swithing form one sat to another mitigates the problem, per you original post. wrote in message ... On Dec 5, 8:50 pm, Chas wrote: Hi all. I bought, or got the TV for free.

If he has another TV to try, it would rule the sat receiver good/bad pretty quick. I still vote for the cap in the TV. You can see the Horizontal has lost lock in the photo. GG |

No I have tested the Satellite Receiver with another tv, it works
fine. I was referring to when the blue screen came up. Anyway, I am putting up with it for now. I am supposedly getting a schematic soon, so we'll see. |
