Magnavox TV Settings
Got this '91 Magnavox 26" stereo TV, it's been for sale in my shop for
some time, but I've noticed something that might be a minor annoyance. Every time the set is powered, it goes back to channel 3 and the display language changes to Spanish. Doesn't matter if the set is left plugged in or not. Any ideas? |

I don't know this model in detail, to give a detailed answer. Generally
speaking, I would be looking to see if there is proper standby supply going to the uPC section. -- Jerry G. ====== "Chris F." wrote in message ...

Sounds like a bad eprom. Or maybe backup battery, if that old.

..... or just MAYBE it is a "Hotel" model that would require the "master
remote" to change these settings. -- Best Regards, Daniel Sofie Electronics Supply & Repair - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Bill Jr" wrote in message Sounds like a bad eprom.
