Audio Systems: follow up question, minor inconvenience, tv antenna

Question
I asked you earlier about hooking up a home theater. I can do everything through my sound system except listen to the TV. I still have to use the TV speakers instead of the theater speakers. The strange thing is I had all of this working until my wife rearanged the room.  

Answer
Dear Paul,

You *should* be able to listen to your TV through the VCR's audio. Since the VCR is between the cable feed and the TV ("Antenna In/Antenna Out"), all you have to do is turn on your VCR, set the receiver's sound source to the VCR, and make sure the VCR is tuned to (a) channel 3 or 4 (default viewing channels) or (b) is tuned to the same TV station that you're watching.

To explain the (a) and (b) a bit. When I had a cable box, I tuned the VCR to channel 3 and let the cable box change the TV channels and the sound along with it. Now that I have cable without the box, I have to tune the VCR to the same channel I'm watching, say, 20 to 20. Of course that means that when you change the TV's channels, you have to change the VCR's. Minor inconvenience. You need to experiment to see which method works with your set-up.

This should work. If it doesn't, let me know, and I'll try to figure something else out.

Kindest regards,

Kevin
