Jinks Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Try another RF cable. Try also switching channels and try another channel on your tv. Harbour looks good no geese there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SmittyB Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 If the sound or video quality changes in any way when you touch or move the cable then its a bad cable because it means the cable's shielding has failed. If you still have the problem after trying a few cables then try fine tuning the TV because the frequency varies a lot based on the age and temperature of the capacitors in the 7800. It took me a while to tune my TV to just the right point where it works perfectly when the 7800 is first turned on and after a few minutes when it heats up and the frequency drifts slightly.
