Another little incident to add:

The last few nights I had problems getting channel 13; the audio would cut in and out and the picture would distort, although never go away completely. Ch 13 has always been strong and I've never had any problems getting it.

When I do have reception problems I usually check my bedroom TV also, to confirm that the problem is upstream from the TVs -- which it always has been.

So last night the living room TV was not getting 13 very well, so I check the BR TV and it was okay. Wut??

I check the connection on the back of the bad TV. I wiggled it a bit and the signal came in good. I made sure the nut was snug and left it. So it's either the cable or the TV terminal, most likely the cable I would think.

I'm leaving it alone for now. However, a question for the gurus: Could this connection problem only affect ONE channel? Doesn't make sense to me, but I know nothing about the technicals of all this.
