Televisions

[RICHARD]

I have one TV but no TV service. I have a VCR (remember those?) and a DVD player hooked up to it.

I like listening to radio - I actually have a stereo component system and still need to figure out how to get the radio sound happening. CDs - no problem. Radio - the volume levels move so there is sound, but it's not reaching the speakers!

Do you have a separate CD player? If you do.....Check the "output.speaker" switch on the front of the system/tuner.

Or the button on the remote.

(I frigging hate the stereos NO buttons on the main unit.)

I have a CD/DVD player hooked up to a TV with a soundbar.

I can only play CDs with the TV on because the sound is routed thru the TV set!

We only have one in the living room and I plan for it to stay that way. It doesn't run that much since neither my husband or I are fond of it running unless we are actively watching and I for sure do not like background noise. To be honest I would be fine with no TV as long as I have internet, haha.

I forgot to say something about radio........

I usually listen to classic rock on the air, but with the playlists pre programmed, you hear the same songs time after time. Doris turned me on to National Public Radio and I really do enjoy the Prairie Home Companion; Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me and I heard a new program I had never heard before, Says You!

PHC is a funny, creative show and the other two are talk/game shows - a break from the somber tone that usually is broadcast.

NPR does have a little something for everyone - news, talk and silliness.

Always thought NPR was for boring people, So I grew up to be boring - but a little smarter for listening!
