    VIP 722 TV2 will not work on one of my Tvs

    OK... I have a blinding idea... You say the TV is Set to CABLE ... is that after a Set Top Cable Box that outputs the cable channels to the TV on normal channels 2 or 3 or 4? IF SO... Then when you set the TV to receive the channel from your Set Top Cable Box in that configuration the...
