Well, old Smokey won't agree with either one of you on this issue.

So, would you tell me the model number of the set, the model year, etc. so that I can check my archieves for data?

Tell me how it blacked out. No sound? No picture? White screen? Black screen? White screen with snow? Have audio with any of these?

To get an idea of what we are talking about, check this website for some ideas:

Anything can be fixed.

Tuner is made on to main PCB and is a common problem for bas solder connections on the "sheild" around the tuner
