Tapping the tuner input and shield caused the usual tuner wrap noise issues, but after soldering the tuner areas, it was still very unstable. Tapping the chassis still resulted in snow,picture loss,flashing,etc.Like a tuner wrap issue. Finally resoldering the jungle IC LA7610 completely solved the last of it. As these chassis age, more of this will show up. Phil Bader. -- Philip Bader Jan Phyl TV Inc. (estab. 1976) 3420 Recker Hwy.
