Paul, we have a Curtis Mathes 50" TV that sounds exactly like yours. When we turned it on yesterday morning, it came on but we couldn't change channels, the volumn is low, and it won't work with the remote or any buttons on the TV. We managed to finally get the channel down to channel 3, and are now working it thru the VCR, but still have no volumn control and the only way we can turn it off is to unplug it. So if you ever got any information on scamatics or repair manuel, please let us know as we are in the same boat. Thank you. Dave
