I have posted fixes in the past and will continue to do so in the
future. My only concern was this tip (see bottom of posts) was so
simple that I thought that business would be lost by other techs since
the internet is available to everyone. I have posted the tip under the
original heading about "RCA motel set". Sorry for the disturbance.

I agree, Jim.
This has been discussed at-nausium before. Don't post a repair? OK,
don't ask for assistance. I have too much else to worry about than who
reads the posts.
