What is the max cable length for lmr 400?
There isn't really a limit for cable length. The maximum length is determined by the loss you can afford to lose based on path loss, antenna gain, receiver sensitivity and transmitter power.
How do you fix the screen size on a hitachi tv?
Look for the word "aspect or format" on the remote or if not there try going in to the MENU.

Is heartradio available on smart tv's?
Heart Radio is available online through their web site. If your smart TV has a web browser with audio enabled you can stream an audio feed. There are also Android apps available.
The easiest way is to use either Freeview, Freesat, Sky, or VIrgin cable services, all of which carry Heart Radio. Any television (smart or otherwise) should be able to receive the broadcast.
What happens when you clean a big screen tv with Windex?
In my experience ... worst case scenerio is that the liquid drips down into the bottom of the screen and then you end up with black streaks on the interior of the screen that you can't wipe off. I will get back to you to let you know if they eventually "dry up" or something. I have read that some people have had success in getting rid of the black streaks by running fans in front of the TV overnight and someone else took the front of the screen off and let it air dry. I'm not brave enough to take apart my TV so we are going with the "fan and wait" method for now.
The of an antenna depends upon the frequency of the RF signal and the gain?
The size of an antenna depends upon the frequecny of the RF signal and the gain.
If you have a 3 wire RCA cable with an s-video cable do you have to use the s-video cable?
No, you can use the VIDEO cable instead and just let the S-CABLE hang loose but the S-Connector/Cable will give a better picture so use it if you can.
How do you get audio through an HDMI cable from my rca surround system to my samsung lcd tv?
HDMI cables contain both the video and the audio signal, so you just plug it in and it should work.
What you can use for rear screen projection?
Rear projection screens are difficult to make. They have to achieve two things in order to work: First, they need to pass light freely. As the projector is behind the screen, the audience in front of it would see nothing if the screen failed to pass light from one side to another. Secondly, they have to prevent light passing straight through or no image would be seen, just the light from the projection lens. The two requirements are in conflict with each other. The more that light is captured by the screen and then dispersed, the less is actually delivered to the viewer. The more that light passes freely through the screen, the more obvious the light source becomes. Screen manufacturers spend a great deal of time and money to produce either rigid or flexible surfaces that meet both requirements and result in an evenly illuminated image. Homegrown equivalents are hard to produce but there are two ways that may produce results. In past times, glass was ground on one side to produce a frosted surface. Glass producers can still carry out the process but the cost is likely to be even higher than purpose made screens. The other option is remarkably low cost. Translucent paper such as tracing paper, baking paper, greaseproof paper etc can be used for small screens. Held flat in a frame, these papers can produce a fairly respectable image. Most certainly, they are not equivalent to a good projection screen, but for cost, they are unbeatable. Finally, stage effects sometimes use a gauze as a screen. The open weave makes them semi transparent and they can be used as a form of rear projection screen. They only work from a distance so for normal rear projection applications they won't be very effective. Treat all of the ideas as experiments and have fun with them.
The lights are dimming because the circuit is overloaded. A microwave and dryer each requires a dedicated circuit. They pull lots of energy. Why sparks are coming out of a cable TV wire is a mystery. Undoubtedly the coax wire is shorted to a power wire somewhere. TV cable wires carry no current. This is serious, call an electrican. another possibility for sparks coming out of the tv cable is that some how the antenna coax connector on the set has become "hot" ... i have seen this happen after an attempted repair of that unit ... quite often those connectors are not mechanically secure and get wrung off while trying to connect or disconnect the coax cable . heh ... how may times have i heard the customer say; "i forgot the cable was connected ..." !

What resolution is better for xbox 360 gaming 720p 1080i or 1080p?
Sometimes it depends in what kind of TV you have, some TV's prefere 1080i to 1080p for example.
But if you have a very good HD TV then 1080P is the best resolution to pick for High def Xbox 360 gaming.
Hope this helped.
Is a 2001 Hitachi Projection TV adaptable for HDTV?
Sadly, the answer is probably no. HD content is restricted to HDMI ports on all current equipment such as cable and satellite receivers and Bluray players. As HDMI was not introduced until 2005, a 2001 television will not have an HDMI port.
There are a few converters on sale that claim to convert HDMI signals to analog signals such as HD analog component or VGA. Although they appear to operate, they are sold against the wishes of the HDMI organization and as such, they cannot be guaranteed to operate in the future.
If the television has a VGA input, an HDMI to VGA converter might be a worthwhile experiment to try although at 9 years old, the TV may not have many more years of life left.
What are all the differences from S video to HDMI?
S-Video will provide a clearer picture because it separates the signals. HDMI is suited for HD (high definition) signals and receivers because HDMI transmits the separate video signals into digital format.
Does a dynex 32 HD TV require a digital antenna?
No such thing as a HD antenna. All antennas are the same. Your antenna should be a UHF/VHF type. Many new ones are powered to help get enough signal to the HD set.
Why do HD TVs have lots of commercials?
The channels are still the same so they shouldn't have any more or less adds then an normal TV.
What are the purposes of a TV's parts Why might television sets have changed over time?
Originally, television sets were bulky and heavy. The back jutted out to accommodate a large picture tube that was in the shape of an ice cream cone (minus the ice cream). The front of the picture tube was flat where it met the screen, and tapered to a narrower round end. It was huge!
Inside, a transformer was wrapped with copper wire.
Also inside, glass tubes fit into a components board; these tubes lit up and got warm when the TV was turned on. These glass tubes could also fail--they were very expensive to replace (each came one to a small box and could run $10-20 dollars for 1). Glass tubes were NOT interchangeable; you had to replace using the same item number. Note: Glass tubes were also used in the first radios.
The picture tube, glass tubes / board, and connecting wires were housed in an outside shell, often made of wood or molded plastic. TVs were often floor models which were the size of 2 night stands, or nearly the size of a small desk!
A particle board covered the back of the tv, including the rounded end of the picture tube. It was important to keep the TV set at least 1 to 3 feet away from the wall or curtain in case it got too hot. Screws held the particle board to the back.
On one corner of the TV back (usually the left side), you would attach the tiny wires (2) for the TV antenna (also called "Rabbit ears"). The rabbit ears consisted of a base with 2 antennas above and attached to it (like a car antenna). Each pulled up; you could extend them to full length, about 18-24 inches. Holding the base in place with your hand, you could tip each antenna to the right, left, forward, or back until you got a clear picture. It could take quite a bit of effort to get the rabbit ears placed "just so" so the picture was clear. BUT often, if you moved your hand away, static or other problems started. Sometimes, a kid in the family stood to keep a hand on the antenna. Other people used aluminum foil or metal coat hanger attached to the antenna(s) to keep a good picture.
On the TV front were knobs, like drawer knobs. One was the On-Off. Another was vertical control; another was horizontal control. If the picture became distorted or started to roll up or down, you used those knobs to stop the movement. Another set of knobs controlled color (IF you had a color set). You could make people's faces green; trees red; sidewalks black; etc. but most often, you'd use those when the coloring was incorrect-- faces too purplish-red and so on. It took quite a bit of effort to meddle with these knobs to get a constant picture that was clear.
There were NO remotes. If you wanted to change the channel, you got up and did it.
We had 3 local stations up through 1970. Then, other broadcasters joined the line up, including subscription services like HBO.
Up through the 1960s, television stopped broadcasting at midnight every night. It resumed at 5:59 a.m. As stations and networks joined, TV began broadcasting at night.
As you can see, TV sets up through the 1970s were large, bulky, clunky, manual, difficult to use, and expensive to fix. They used an Analogue signal, not digital. Once we had artificial satellites, television could broadcast as digital signals. Digital bandwidths transfer sound and picture separately over two separate methods.
Slowly, this changed to small electronics components. We now have flat screen TV sets. No one even refers to TV as a "TV set" anymore. We use remotes to turn on/off and change channels. Today, a "basic cable" plan includes hundreds of channels! Programming runs 24-hours a day, 7 days a week. However, we lose ALL television when there is a cable outage--not so in pre-cable-tv days when you only lost 1 of the 3 primary channels.
Believe it or not, people still have/use 1980s-1990s "television sets". Not everyone likes flat screen TV. Also, not everyone likes HD TV or even cable.
What is the meaning of antenna radome?
A randome comes in many types of materials(typically fiberglass) and is basically a structural weatherproof material that is designed for antenna's safety. It acts as a shield to the exposed and delicate parts of the antenna.
Can you repair a lcd tv screen when the panel is broke behind the outer screen?
Unfortunately no. The price to replace the panel would make the TV beyond economical repair.
Yes, that is the right thing to do in your case.
