There is a mute signal from the main micro I think, that mutes the sound
when changing channels. I have found that bad. It is NOT the same mute
circuit as the one that is used when you push the mute button. There is a
resistor you can remove to disable it. I was told to do that by one of RCAs
$2/min. techs and then a year or two later they denied that they ever
recommended doing it. Some guys say that will destroy the speaker eventually
but I have not seen it happen.
