Author Gremlins in my TV?
Info

2008-01-16, 1:25 pm

I have a non-digital TV and basic cable. Six months or so the picture on
channel 67(basic) was distorted, wobbly, whatever. That lasted for about
two weeks; it cleared up. Then 66(basic) went on the fritz. Same thing -
distorted, wobbly, whatever.

This trend has continued. Now 62(basic) is screwed up; the other channels
work.

Do you have any idea what might be causing this? Ghosts, gremlins, goblins?
Thanks

Some form of local interference which is not very frequency stable.
