My 91 year old mother is very hard of hearing and in a long-term care facility. I want to install headphones on her RCA F19436 TV. There are output jacks on the back, but that hook-up doesn't seem to work. The headphones work fine on a TV with an earphone jack, but this TV evidently does not have one. Should I try to hook up directly to the leads to the speakers inside the chassis?? Any suggestions? Harlan

SOURCE: audio output jacks

If I remember this tv correctly, check under the audio setting in the menu, most tv's including this on have variable output for the audio o/p. meaning the the o/p vol. is adjusted as the tv speaker vol. changes. some tv's will put out a fixed audio o/p to the rca jacks, but will only do this when the speakers are shut off in the menu (not muted, but off). I have run into this problem many times & have yet to find a better solution to getting a steady sound sound out of the o/p jacks.

SOURCE: Can I hook up external speakers to this T.V.?

This tv carries two sound out phono plugs, but if for some reason they are not there ( date of mfr ) you can use the headphone out jack. Just go to any radio shack store and explain what you are trying to do and im sure they will be happy to assist you.

good luck,

You have to put you TV in AV Mode. You don't use the "Channels Tuner" on this type of input. But use Audio Visual Mode.
