hello Those little gizmos are called capristors (capacitor---resistor), use the right thing otherwise if someone hooks the tv up to something like cable(it carries power)and the set is a hot chassis(otherwise it wouldn't be using a capristor)you will have a set that just shut off very quickly---an open fuse, maybe some burnt print, and likely a shorted bridge....Just trying to be of some help....Peter -----Original Message----- From: techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of al Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2002 6:02 PM To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Antenna isolator (Philips) 20L1 chassis why not rob one out of a junk chassis,check for ac leakage. al alleathe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Al Leatherman Mine Hill, NJ 07803 973-361-5796 WWW.ALS-TV.NET ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Huston" <DaveHuston@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2002 5:55 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Antenna isolator (Philips) 20L1 chassis > > Can someone tell me what can be used to replace the gizmo that looks like a > disk-cap inside the antenna isolator box on a Philips TV.
