My rca tv appeared to lose its cable connection once in a while. The screen would slowly fade to snow and lose audio and the come back. This became worse and now it is snow all the time. I checked all connections and are fine. Any suggestions?

You don't give a model number but on several RCA/GE models during the 90's they had a problem with solder joints in the tuner deteriorating leading to the symptoms that you describe. You have to take the cover off of the tuner and resolder all of the ground connections as well as any other joints that look bad.

The model # is F316322ET, from 1995. At the risk of sounding, uh stupid, what does the tuner look like?

It is that thing that your antenna cable is attached to. You have to remove the cover to get to the solder joints.
