The outside cable should have a connection between the shield, and a good ground such as a 6 foot pole that has been driven into the ground. If the plugs on your VCR and TV aren't polarized, then try reversing ONE of them. Or, get yourself a new extension to go between the outside cable and the VCR. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lowrey "To vacillate or not to vacillate, that is the question.... ....or is it?" ...!(be those of the author and not necessarily those of his most eminent employer. ]
