Hello,
As you can see, this will be my very first post here. I have lurked here quite a bit, and finally registered and will be offering ALOT of questions.
Please bare with me as I'm a self proclaimed newbie.
Well, I've made the costly leap into HDTV, with the purchase of the RCA 38" F38310. I have had the set for a little less then a week now, and while I have been generally pleased I do have some questions/concerns.
They are :
- I get some static coming from the screen *every* time I turn off the T.V. This happened to my old 27" Sharp T.V but not *everytime* and not alot of static. But with the RCA it occurs alot. It is basically a blanket of static coming from the screen when it is turned off.
I was told by someone through mail, that it is probaly an external source causing the static.
This is my wiring/set-up,
Surge Protector : Monster Cable HTS 700(connected directly to wall) Connecting the following components
T.V Monitor - RCA F38310
DVD - Sony D530
Cable - Sigma Cable Top Box
Reciever - Kenwood VR 407
Spare - 200 Watt Lamp
Spare - Sega Dreamcast.
There are no other components on that outlet with the Surge Protector.
My Subwoofer is connected directly to a wall on the opposite end.
The way the set-up for the T.V is as follows,
DVD Component Cable direct to T.V.
DVD Optical to Kenwood Reciever
Cable Wall Coaxial to Cable Set-Top, Set-Top Coaxial to T.V
T.V Audio Out to Kenwood Monitor Audio Ins.
I think my set-up is fine, let me know otherwise.
If there is an external source, I believe it would come directly from what lies beyond the wall. Directly inback of the wall of the outlet of the surge protector is the kitchen, and more significant the Refrigerator. Any thoughts?
Also, when powering up the T.V I see sorta like a lightning strike either on the far right side (more of a white little line) and a faint white image directly in the center of the screen.
And my last thing, when the T.V is turned off, I can hear the fan working pretty loud, I believe this is normal, but the fan is on pretty much the whole time with no letdown. This maybe normal, but just making sure.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
