Seems like I read that some circuits were too delicate for the "gun
type" and nneded the pencil type.

The repairshop in your area will have the proper tools to remove the
tuner and fix the bad solder on it. It probily won`t cost you a
awhole lot of money. Will cost you mostly labor for doing this
unless it need the rf connector which I don`t think it needs. This
will save you alot of greef in learning how to use the schematics to
find out that you didn`t need it in the first place to fix your
tuner.

The tv was given to me so I dont want to spend too much on it. Plus,
this thing is so heavy I cant move it much by myself.

I am thinking of cracking it open this weekend and taking a look. How
is the coax connector held in there? This seems to be the part giving
me fits as it is loose and wiggeling it up makes the picture get
better. I am wondering if I am going to need a new one.
