    It doesn't sound like your receiver is the problem

    ..rather the TV or the interconnects. Do the left/right signal swap as suggested, as well as using a different input on your receiver (plugging the TV into "VCR", for example).

    Now, if you find that your TV is the source of the problem and you have a VCR, you can get around the difficulty by turning on your VCR, tuning it to the same station you're watching on the TV (assuming over-the-air), and listening to it rather than the (faulty) TV output.

    It does sound like a bad interconnect or one output channel from the TV is AWOL! Good luck!

    Thanks for all the invaluable advice

    It did turn out to be a bad wire connecting the TV audio to the reciever. I do not have a vcr or cable box attached to this TV, so it goes directly from the TV to the reciever. I first pulled the connection and replaced it tightly. That made the difference for a few days, but then I had the same problem yesterday. I just hit the wire and it was fixed. I assume it must be a loose wire in the connector. They are old cheap RCA cables. I will be replacing them shortly. I appreciate all the advice which helped me fix the problem just in time and get several compliments on the system.

    Glad it got you through, that's awesome. And thank you for updating your situation. I hate not knowing if a problem was ever tracked down and resolved.

    Glad this worked out for you. As Jim said, it is very frustrating to offer advice and then never hear back as to what the problem actually was, if and how it got resolved. Thanks for taking the time to check back in. Completing the loop like this also serves to help others who might be experiencing a similar problem by helping them to see how it was sucessfully remedied for you. Not to mention the fact that it makes it more worthwhile for those of us who take the time to try and help. You'll certainly be more apt to get a reply from me in the future, should you have any other problems or questions. Thank You.
