[QUOTE=Charlie;3073111
The set had a slight design flaw... the tuner did not like humid days. The tuner was touch activated. If the humidity was high, it would always get stuck on channel two. If you touched another channel tab, it would go to that channel, but then go back to 2 when you removed your finger. To deal with this problem, my grandparents would put a penny in the little space between the tab and the frame for the channel they wanted to watch.[/QUOTE]

To fix the channel sticking on these pull the selector & clean
the little buttons, clean the holes they go through. Always worked
for me. They also get int sound, an IC socket on the selector.
If you see the set again I would give them your ## & tell
them $20. Thats a big thing to lug around & it wont take long
before they give up.
