Newbie here. Came to this forum to get help troubleshooting a Samsung TV. Saw I need to activate my account with a new post, so here we go.

I'm a former Navy Sonar tech (1978-2007) and am comfortable working around electrical/electronics. I currently live in South Carolina. Hoping to use this forum to broaden my knowledge on current/future problems with home tech.

Looking forward to working with the forum!
