[QUOTE="Tanith, post: 85057, member: 11142"]If I'm not mistaken, both the TV and the VCR have the RCA jacks on them...I've never attempted to use them, but that's certainly worth a try. Here is the information from TV Fool... [url=http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3d03f3ca1092d2ee]TV Fool[/url] There are some channels listed there I don't recall being able to see, and others that I know we got before this all started are not listed. And I checked the antenna myself this morning, it is pointing in the right direction. The thing is, we were receiving a number of channels before the problems started...quite clearly, although we at times got some very loud interference that we were never able to pinpoint. That's why I suspected the Spanish station. We've had the usual storms over the spring and summer, but nothing appears to be damaged as far as we can observe. Potential bad capacitors, eh? I suppose that's a possibility as well, since both our own box and the one my grandmother gave us seem to have developed the same issue. The only control for the box is the remote itself...unless I'm missing something. Anyway, thanks for the replies thus far, I'll continue experimenting. :D[/QUOTE]
