Regarding your new VCR problems! The one thing you said that makes the least "technical sense" is that "This was, of course, true even when the VCR was turned off." When a VCR is turned off, the RF signal from your cable is switched directly to the output RF cable that goes to your TV cable input. Therefore as long as the coax cables are OK, you should see the same results, regarding picture quality etc., that you had before you installed the new VCR. I would bet that you had/have a bad cable/connector problem. I can't imagine any modern VCR being that susceptible to emissions from what-your TV? What did a tape playback from the VCR look like? If Ok, then the cable to TV is OK and the TV & VCR output are on the same channel! In a "previous life" I worked on TV & VCR systems so if you still need help, call or e-mail me!
