Question:
Hello! Thank you for your kind support. I just installed my Samsung HDTV LCD and all seems to be well except for one channel. Some channels have the bar across and others do not. One channel in particular has the bar across, but also has a small thin line of light at the very top, like the channel is going into a horizontal roll. I hope that I’m explaining this well, but the line goes away when a commercial comes on. Is this a cable problem? My TV is connected to the wall which has only basic cable. Do I need a HD cable box?
