I would like to hear peoples recommendations regarding a place in or
near San Francisco to have a television repaired.  Negative recommendations
are also appreciated.

The set in question is an eleven year old 27" Yamaha (I believe that it
is actually produced by NEC).  In the past, I have had it serviced at
AV Repairs in Mtn. View, but they are no longer in business.  And since, 
the problem has reoccured, perhaps they were not the best.  I would like
a recommendation in SF, or anyplace between SF and Mtn. View.

I believe the problem is relatively straightforward.  While viewing the
tv, the picture and sound disappear, and a electical humming sound appeared.
The main power light remains lit, but all other appearance of power is gone.

AV Repair informed me that there was a known flaw in the set in this regard,
but claimed to have taken the makers repair suggestions to correct it.

I'm interested in a correct and inexpensive repair while I hold out for the
digital tv revolution.
