Our admiral 13" TV (model 12300, serial 163563, man date:May
1996)started acting up the other day. When powered up, nothing but
snow. Tried the auto program. It goes through all the channels and
did manage to find some Obscure channels out there in the airwaves
(this is hooked to antenna mode, not cable), but will not find our
four local channels as one would expect. When I push the "program"
button, the only choice I get is "caption 1-2", or "text 1'2". I
should add that when the volume is adjusted up or down, the volume bar
appears with asian fonts above it! I was hoping to find some way to
reset this thing and start over, but can not find a way to program it.
The remote has the word "reset" printed below the mute button, but
can't figure out how to trigger it, even using it in conjuction with
other buttons, etc. Any advice? Pitch it?
