I have a new RCA TV. It was made less than a year ago and is great. However, as RCA's are suspect to, and I've asked and they confirmed, it's normal for the TV to take a while to turn on (10 seconds) and to have a delay in changing channels (2-3 seconds).
Would there be a service menu option to atleast shorten the delay when I am changing channels and I get a picture quicker?

What the Model and Chassis number ..???
The model is 27R411T.
The chassis is ITC008FHM.
CRTs need a warm-up time. Some sets apply reduced filament voltage to the CRT (when the set is off) to shorten this time. I guess your RCA is one that does not. Actually, I prefer the way yours is designed. 10 seconds is no big deal.
Hi. Not using satellite or digital cable. Just standard cable. We've three other TVs here and none have this issue; seems it's an RCA 'feature' as they have confirmed when I asked about it via email.
I was hoping there might be a service menu to reduce or limit this.
