You've zeroed in on the goal... We're all proud of ya...lol We've all chipped in and got you "One Free Lesson" from a Master in WhoRyu... ...and just incase Photobucket goes down and most of this entire post gets hosed in the process...Congrats on the Milestone:cool:

It is interesting but so far it does not look like anyone agency or conspiracy theorist has truely explained it...yet. There is one thing thats for sure...everyone reading this post in whatever place they live knows about it! With the News and the Internet places that would never have known about these incidents are wondering whats going on. Well there are a few people out fishing for seals and a village in somebekistan that have not heard yet..so for them it's not the end of the world scenario yet. LOL P.S. I am suprised it has not been blamed on Navy Sonar yet

Hey Perry Welcome to the Forums

Glad your OK Buddy!!!

I looked on the TV and through the entire Owners manual and theres not a single place that says what your asking. Theres the symbol you see on the front of the TV and the same in the manual but it never goes into detail about what format or rating it is. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place or something??? Here's the Owners Manual: http://www.manualnguide.com/download/manual-guide/sylvania-lc320ss8a-owners-manual.html

Dont have a clue... I just got off the phone with the authorized repair center closest to my home. He seemed like a common sense person and told it like it was. It's one of 2 possible things and one of which would be his geuss from those pictures I sent him in an Email. His first impression - Bad Display - It's Junk(even if I took it there and he found that to be the case he would not be able to do anything with it if I left it there). A remote possibility it's a particular circuit board that is bad. If that is the case it's a $90 total repair parts and labor.

Beautiful Place William....Bet you'll remember every hour put into it when the first person slides a chair on the floor...LOL

P.S. I just used this fix for the single Stuck Pixel on one of my computer monitors and it worked!!! Pressure Method 1Turn off your computer's monitor. 2Get yourself a damp washcloth, so that you don't scratch your screen. 3Take a household pen, pencil, screwdriver, or some other sort of instrument with a focused, but relatively dull, point. A very good tool would be a PDA stylus. 4Fold the washcloth to make sure you don't accidentally puncture it and scratch the screen. 5Apply pressure through the folded washcloth with the instrument to exactly where the stuck pixel is. Try not to put pressure anywhere else, as this may make more stuck pixels. 6While applying pressure, turn on your computer and screen. 7Remove pressure and the stuck pixel should be gone. This works as the liquid in the liquid crystal has not spread into each little pixel. This liquid is used with the backlight on your monitor, allowing different amounts of light through, which creates the different colors.

Thanks Leo... Here are a couple handheld pictures I just uploaded of what it is doing so you can see whats happening on the screen.: without flash with flash

Mike, Randy's World Record accomplishments are right up there in front. Whenever I see these kind of posts I think "Their kind of asking for what pops into your mind" and not a judgement. Because someone does not mention what comes into your mind first does not mean a lack of support.

Another Vote for the Live Hunts!!!

LOL...Whats that song??? oh yeah..."Another One Bites The Dust":D Actually I thought it was a cool way to propose! Remember it's not about if problems will happen it is all about how you both depend on each other during those times.

Canadians look acrossed and laugh because the Boardwalk is made from 2x4's..We look acrossed from the Boardwalk and laugh because it's probably lumber from their forests...LOL

I've been doing some research on the sites that post flat rate repair costs for LCD's...if they are any indication, though I'll try the local repair shop first, it looks like replacement is just a little amount more and you have a new TV! Thats either Ridiculus or We're all in the Wrong line of Work...lol

Thanks Tim HEY 2011 :happybday: LOL

Kill'em...

So is this possibly a Bulb/light source behind the screen that is on it's way out ????

LOL...I'll throw in a geuss: "A tree fell on or near it"

Got one (1-1/2yr old Sylvania 32") given to us tonight by a family member and have a question: Is it possible for a LCD TV to have "Burn In"??? It appears that the lower 1/5 of the screen is darker than the rest of it. I've went through all of the settings in the owners manual to see if it had anything to do with the settings for brightness or sharpness etc..nothing changed after resetting every setting and starting over completely. According to this statement doing research on the subject on the Net I found it cant happen but I wanted to check with people who had them and actually can give me their experiences with them. Any suggestions on what to do to correct the problem or what to look at in repair costs? "Misconception #3: LCD TVs suffer from burn-in. Absolutely untrue. LCD monitors work by blocking light, so it is literally impossible for burn-in to occur on the screen. LCD TVs are sometimes referred to as "transmissive" displays, meaning that light isn't created by the liquid crystals themselves. Instead, a light source (bulb) behind the panel shines light through the display, which uses liquid crystals to manipulate the intensity of that light. When light is generated from a source external to the display screen itself, images cannot be permanently—or even temporarily—retained." http://www.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv/lcdtv-misconceptions.shtml

I agree thats pretty good...but this one below still has my vote for the "Best Ever"

George I have to give you props for using the Search feature on the website....LOL...You may be the only one doing it but by goodness you got it down pat!:flex: LOL Actually it's a good thread to revisit from time to time and go over my setup, see what changed, and look at what everyone else is using too. Hoyt Trykon @70#(start of the season and backed down to 64# by the end of the season) QAD Ultra Rest SVL String Decelerator String Loop Winn Free Flight c-12 Relax Release Tubeless Shurz-a-peep Peep Sight Trophy Ridge Rhino 3-pin Sight (pins come down from the top) Gold Tip 5575 Expedition Hunter Arrow Shafts Muzzy 100 3-blade 8" X-Ring Stabilizer w/ 1" Doinker ...and probably the biggest thing overall in my consistency has to be the use of the G-5 ASD to square the arrow shafts and inserts...it made that much difference!!!

Agreed...thanks William

Happy New Year to you and yours Ross...Glad we got to meet-up in Charlotte, NC. this year and looking forward to hunting with you asap

Boom Boom Happy New Year Randy!!!!!!

Good Point Mike...Definitely people out on the roads need to use extra caution of all the nights to be driving! I like to abide by something that was told to me years ago and for whatever reason it made perfect sense back then: "Stay Home On New Years Eve...All The Amatuers Are Out On The Roads Thinking They Can Still Drive Safely"
