Something funky with my TV

Well, if your problem persists and you can't fix it, get one of these devices, remote control power of switch,

I can shut the TV off. But, I think it's the kids messing with my TV on their phone. Apparently my TV has an app you can download a remote to the phone. lol I never knew that. haha But, seems like everyone is sleeping. My TV is haunted.

Now thats Diabolical!

Are the batteries dead in your remote control?

Wow, just WoW. I know this is going to sound snarky but how about just unplug the damn cable box, then TV, then the surround sound if you have one, and see if it stops. If you still have problems then it's a neighbor who has a high power CB or HAM radio transmitting it. You'll easily spot them because of big ass atena sticking a over their house.

HAHA you just described my neighbor. lol His antenna is so huge it would crush his house. Why they need an antenna that big?

Are you going to ask if we can donate a new one to you?

No, I don't use it. I care about my dog and him losing his leg if you got a problem with that.

My doorbell speaker had an issue where it was playing a Spanish language radio station. I think its wired to the doorbell switches rather than wireless. I do live catty-corner from a mexican store and restaurant, so I wondoered if somehow it was picking up something they were transmitting from there, maybe on a wifi repeater or something. I just turned the volume on the speaker low enough that I could not hear the constant radio playing on the doorbell speaker. This was a few years ago. It may still do it for all I know.

lol This is the first time its ever done this. I think it's the kids.

Just a vague guess. You might have a function which allows you to turn off the picture whilst being still able to hear sound, which has been switched somehow with the off command. Try to recalibrate your tv first. Soft reset or reset or something.

Id just reset the tv and change batteries in the remote. Not sure why remote batteries affect anything but you never know.

lol. I have no clue how to even do that.
