Well, they fixed a bug in the KV2075 TV ROM's; turns out there's a
provision in similar models of that line for a second RF input (handy for 
switching between cable and rabbit-ears, or switching between our
'A' and 'B' cables in Pittsburgh's two-cable system.  Other Warner systems
have this bug as well.)

Anyway, at first all sets used same ROM, but it was soon discovered that if 
the set though it was receiving a 'change to RF input #2' signal from the IR 
remote it would switch even the the consumer couldn't connect anything to 
these ports.  That would be pretty irritating, wouldn't it.

So, if I ever try hack the 2nd RF input back into my set, I'll need to
find someone with the 'buggy' ROMS.  BTW, anyone know where I can get Sony
Service Manuals? (and maybe parts?)  Thanks.
