Hi Buck,
To answer you question about the eeprom, you do need chipper check to
correctly initialize a new eeprom (or for that matter, to check and
reinitialize the ones that are in the set now). The "preprogrammed" eeproms
(if someone has those available?) may work, but won't be correctly aligned
for your chassis. By the way, this chassis will have either 2 or 3 eeproms
(3 if it has "twin tuner PIP" or 2 otherwise), one for the main chassis and
tuner, one for the convergence, and one for the second PIP tuner. There are
several service bulletins about tuning problems for this chassis depending
on when it was made. If you can tell me the first three digits of the
serial number, I can tell you if any of that applies.

| Got a PTK195 that sometimes doesn't tune in the channels for 1 to 5 mins.
| Most of the channels are good, usually its the channels between 18 and 25
| that do it. When the channels come in after the delay the are alright
| One of the things I was going to change was the EEPROM , but not having
any
| info ( no service manual) I don't know if it can be changed without a
| chipper checker. As I don't have one I am wondering if the pre-programmed
| ones are available.
| Any help one this one would be appreciated as this is the first 195 I've
| seen.
