Sylvania SRPD442 42 in. EDTV-Ready Plasma

Hi! i found this site however I couldn't find any information about my particular problem or model. I have a Sylvania SRPD442 42" that I just bought a few weeks ago used, from ebay however it came with a problem that I knew already it had it, however I never thought it was going to appear again as the seller told me to. Anyways... What happens to the tv is the following: After 2 o 3 hours of usage... 2 one inch lines will flipp from top to bottom so is like a mirrow that you see... I have to turn it off several hours and it goes back to normal... I don't know how serious is this problem... Maybe an overheating problem?

Is my ILO 42" "EDTV" plasma ready for just a regular antenna?

No, it doesn't have a digital tuner. If you want to watch digital channels you will have to acquire a digital set-top box and connect it to the tv thru the av inputs.

Plasma 6842PF

Guess what you may have hit the nail on the head. Plasma TV used a balast type power system for the backlighting and that is what you are hearing. I would suggest getting this set looked at to see if the plasma excitor needs to be replaced (it may have another name in this brand of set).
