New Toshiba 27 inch Tv has annoying horizontal lines
Hi! All,
I bought a brand new Toshiba 27AF44; I use regular cable from RCN; and the Tv has annoying horizontal lines when the picture is viewed from about 8-10 feet. I tried all contrast and sharpness settings; but these wont go away. Anyone with any ideas please respond..Thanks Theo |

Call your dealer for warranty service. The CRT may be defective, or there
may be a defect in the blanking circuits, or there may be too high a bias setting from the CRT bias supply for the G2 feeding the CRT. I personally would buy a better brand of set! -- Jerry G. ====== "Theo" wrote in message ups.com... Hi!

Anything in the Toshiba line under 36" is just a chinese Apex with a Toshiba lable on it. The other option is to use a vcr as a tuner and feed the signal in the A/V inputs. This tends to cut down on the interference. Even better is get a minidish and feed S-video into it. That should get rid of most of it. Bear in mind you will never get a decent picture out of that model. Just a acceptable one. |
