Seems to me you can run that set with the memory IC removed. Try that..to decide if you actually have a bad IC. -Ed- Ed Gaidies Tel-Tek Electronics.

Both sets had the shifted on screen display problem (bad memory IC) all other functions associated with the memory IC worked properly. After replacing the IC the set will no longer auto program (it leaves all 125 channels in memory) nor can you manually program the set. Tried a new micro but same results. Called tech support, they said must have a couple of bad Memory IC's, I had to agree since the old ones would do these functions normally. Since I have tried 5 new memory IC's from 3 different suppliers with the same results. Has anyone else had any problems with these memory IC's lately? Part number 483520988108. Also if anyone has one or two of these on the shelf that is in the old white packaging from philips I would be interested in purchasing them. I would even try a used one if anyone has one.
