Type 2: Symptoms: My screen has a wavy line, and the sound is good. (FOIL METHOD)

 

Method 1
Materials required:  3" antenna wire, aluminum foil
 

                                                        Here are the directions:
                                            (THIS WORKS BEST ON OLDER TV SETS WITH FINE TUNERS)

 
1. Examine the back of your TV set. Find the antenna terminals (this is the antenna terminal that the cable service is hooked up to). Get a piece
of antenna wire about three feet long. Strip one end of the wire and attach it to the VHF terminals along with the cable.

2. Tune in one of your movie channels and adjust the fine tuner until you get the cleanest picture.

3. Cut off about ¼" of the antenna wire and adjust the fine tuner. Continue to do this until you get a nearly perfect picture. NOTE: You should not have to cut off more that 6 inches of the antenna wire.

4. Get a piece of aluminum foil and wrap it around the antenna wire. Slide it up and down until you have a perfect picture. It sounds a bit    complicated, but it is actually very simple and effective.
 

Type 2: For cable systems using Oak Converter

 

Materials Required: Oak Cable Box part # AWL9NFRKDM400 , Strip of aluminum foil
 
If you own an OAK CONVERTER Model No. AWL9FRKDM400 cable box, you can descramble very easily. If your cable company uses the OAK CONVERTERS then  you should buy or rent one.
Here are the directions:

 

1. Take a ¼ inch deep drive socket and remove the four screw at the bottom of the box.

2. Carefully and slightly pry open the front of the box and locate two plastic clips

3. NOTE: You only need enough room to slip two fingers into the front of the box; So, BE CAREFUL! Don't destroy your box by ripping the front of it off!

4. Look inside and you will see a ribbon that slips into a clip. Reach in and remove the ribbon out of the clip. Now remove the clip.

5. Take a piece of aluminum foil and form it over the clip. Trim off excess foil.

6. Install the clip back into the box. Then slip the ribbon back into the clip.

7. Close your box and enjoy.
