RCA DRD420 RE ISSUE

[bubbagscotch]

I have one of these older RCA receivers, and it started acting up lately. Sometimes the color changes, usually when it's a reddish color and turns pinkish then the whole picture turns black and white. It happens every now and then, it's not the wires to the tv because I tried that already. Is my receiver going toast? Or what do you guys think?

Sounds like thats the case if you've replaced the cables already ....
That is a pretty old set up.

May be time to upgrade

Free upgrade , just complain about not getting all your ppv channels any more. There is Guide issues with some of the olders boxes where we swap them out for d11/d12s .

420re is on the list of boxes that are affected by the guide issue ( missing most of the ppv channels and missing 700 channels where nflst nba , nhl all have there games located at )

i had a DRD go berzerk on me sometime between Sat. & Sun. morning where the guide just dropped anything above channel 20. I sent a reauthorize & then did the whole 30 sec. power cycle. fixed it right up.
