RIP UHF

My father gave us a hand-me-down old 27” TV recently.  It’s been great!  Odd, though, the sound would sometimes be fuzzy on UHF stations.

Last night UHF died entirely.  Since the antenna still works to receive and modify reception of VHF, it would appear to be the innards that process and display the UHF signal.

Where is most of what passes for kid’s programming on broadcast TV?  UHF.  Where is at least half of what we watch otherwise?  UHF.

Doh.

Notwithstanding that it still works fine for watching DVDs, looks like I will promptly be swapping our 23” 21” set back into usage, and hope it doesn’t get any ideas from the other one.
